Do you want to work for a revolutionary startup that is literally changing the way we communicate via social media platform? If the answer to that question is a yes -- which I know it was -- you need to be an Odyssey intern. Here's why.
1. You want to work for an amazing startup that is growing every day.
Literally everyday. Odyssey is known as a, “college newspaper on steroids”. Just last week Odyssey raised over $25 million in investments… safe to say, this startup is going places. Our genius creator and CEO, Evan Burns, is one of the leading millennials of our generation. He even made the Forbes “30 under 30” list. As an intern you will have the honor and privilege of working closely with him and the entire team of creative and passionate Odyssey employees.
2. Be surrounded by intelligent motivated millennials who want to make a difference through journalism.
Who wouldn’t want to work with other recent college grads who are passionate about the same things you are? Interning at Odyssey will give you the opportunity to work with other professionals who want to make a change through journalism and social media. These people are revolutionaries! Have you heard of the term “dad bod”? Yes, that was thanks to Odyssey.
3. Give a voice to the voiceless and spread ideas through articles.
As a writer I am really passionate about creating change through articles. As an intern/ writer you are given the opportunity to spread your ideas through your articles. Whether you are able to change one perspective or one million, you are a catalyst for change. Disclaimer: This internship is not about getting coffee, dry cleaning, or running errands. This is the real deal.
4. Live in the most exciting city in the world for an entire summer.
New York City. Need I say more? I’m pretty sure it's most college students dream to live in New York City and live the exciting life of an intern. Times Square, Brooklyn, Governors Ball, Shake Shack, Levain Bakery, Soho, Central Park, 5th Avenue, real bagels. The list is endless.
5. Gain unrivaled experiences and make connections and friendships that will last a lifetime.
Having spent time in the office and working with Odyssey for two years I can confidently say that the people I have met are incredible and the experience I have gained is priceless. As an intern, you will have endless opportunities and gain understanding of how a company is run. By the end of the summer, you will have grown as a person as well as a professional and be one step closer to being a college grad and on your way to the real world.
I hope this convinces you to apply for an internship at Odyssey. I can guarantee, you will not be disappointed. As Taylor Swift said, “Welcome to New York, it's been waiting for you!"
