Entry Level

This is a great opportunity for a motivated and talented person looking to crack the world of business wide open. 

The internship would require organizing and filing for a busy personal assistant. Must be familiar with the "Getting Things Done" (GTD) method of productivity. I will be passing on highly confidential communications from my boss, who is an executive assistant to a Deputy Regional Sales Manager. Right now, this manager's main project is consulting for a start-up firm that is the brainchild of one of the co-founders of Kozmo.com.

Typical duties include:

• prioritizing tasks
• prioritizing e-mails
• prioritizing appointments
• organizing out-of-office replies
• researching ideas
• researching ideas to better prioritize tasks based on e-mails about appointments
• coffee

Must have a sense of humor, high familiarity with Microsoft Office (particularly Microsoft Access version 2007), a car, and a willingness to work weekends.

The job requires 15 to 20 hours a week to be flexibly scheduled based on the availability of the personal assistant, the executive secretary, the Deputy Regional Sales Manager, the Deputy Regional Sales Manager's wife (some light cooking chores may be required), and the CEO. Hours will be self-scheduled by the intern based on e-mailed priorities and appointments, subject to approval by CoreStaff, an outsourced HR and payroll tax firm that is consulting on this internship project.

Bachelor's or Master's degree preferred. Equal Opportunity Employer. Compensation and benefits determined by performance at the end of the internship (no more than three years). Serious inquiries only.
