You'll be involved in all aspects of our marketing and gain detailed insight into the entire operations of a business.

* Strong communication skills, and desire to learn about marketing.
* Ability to proactively solve problems, and an aptitude for getting things done.
* Commitment to working 15+ hours / week.
* Commitment to working 10+ weeks during the Spring semester.
