KONNESSI LLC WWW.KONNESSI.COM
SOCIAL MEDIA INTERN Internship Description: In most offices, you do the "Firefox windows shuffle" when your boss walks past your desk. You swap out Twitter for a Wikipedia article on Roth IRA's, Perez Hilton is replaced by an old (but convincing) spreadsheet, and Bloomberg stock quotes edge out your Facebook profile. We realize you've spent years practicing this intricate desktop tango, but wouldn't your adrenaline system thank you if you had to do it a little less often? As it turns out, there IS a place where "working" means rocking Facebook, Yelp, and Twitter at the same time. Konnessi LLC is looking for a new Social Media Intern to help us spread the word about our clients. And just who are these "clients?" Well, we're not at liberty to reveal names. But suffice to say a Grammynominated R&B singer, professional athletes, iconic restaurants, and iconoclastic financial industry markets are among them. That's a needy bunch of people, which is why we need interns to help us manage social media strategy on behalf of the rich and famous. So if your heart breaks a little every time you miss one of Charlie Sheen's.....erm....inspired 140-character philosophies--but you also kind of like being gainfully employed--there's a place where these two passions can live (and tweet) in happy harmony. #winning.
