- WHAT WE NEED: A creative, self-directed, curious, marketing and market research focused intern. Our goal for this role? To map how we can best market into what we call the “gray space” with prospective clients.

- WHO YOU ARE: Here is what you’re probably interested in, like thinking about, and are wired as—
- Curious. You like to figure out how things work. Or why things are the way they are. Think investigative reporter.
- Logophile. OK, if you’re the right type of person, you’ve looked this up and dropped it into casual conversation within the next 48 hours.
- Self-directed. This is a role that will be given direction, but broad latitude to accomplish on one’s own.
- Thirst for learning.
- A budding pundit. Not only do you like words, but you like to write. Not long tomes or deep research abstracts, but pithy, meaningful, insights-driven stuff. Think short stories. Something between haiku and novella. You've written at least one tweet in iambic pentameter just for fun. You’ve blogged on life observations or your synthesis of current events.
- You love the intersection of marketing, and market research. Finding a theme or insight, and then crystallizing, prepping, and disseminating it across the appropriate spectrum of social media tool.
