Genesis Interactive, Inc. is offering a unique internship opportunity. Our interns can work here, in our downtown San Francisco office, or remotely from the comfort of their own homes. As long as you can meet deadlines, work begins and ends at the time that is most convenient for you. We've graduated three classes of talented gamers/interns and we are now looking for top quality individuals to fill our new class. The internship is unpaid, but school credit is available where applicable.
About GotGame:
Genesis Interactive, Inc. is one of the fastest growing startups in the Bay Area. We developed and maintain GotGame.com, while providing gaming-related info to over two million gamers per week via our news portals, user-submitted video sharing site, and syndicated radio and television programs. However, GotGame is more than just a gaming news site. We recently launched GotGame LIVE: an in-game chat application that allows users to utilize VoIP, stream & watch live video game play, run third party widgets, and much more. This application will dramatically alter the face of the PC gaming industry, making GotGame LIVE the ultimate gamer application, and GotGame.com the place to play.
Our office is located in downtown San Francisco. http://news.gotgame.com/ is our online home.
Skills you have:
Marketing background is favorable, but not necessary. The marketing that interns will be focusing on is online media and guerrilla marketing. Both are prevalent, but not mainstream, and is often not strongly covered in marketing courses. If you feel you can meet and surpass the expectations of our Marketing interns, you are welcome to apply
Gamers: We need individuals with a passion for video games. Interns need to be able to keep up with the lingo, and know what is going on in the gaming news.
Proficient with Computers: Hardware familiarity is a plus, but is not necessary. Interns need to be able to work with a computer on a daily basis, beyond just basic functions.
Quick learner: This internship offers a lot of hands-on experience and interns are expected to have a "pick up & go!" attitude. The gaming world is unfamiliar territory for many, and will require individuals to keep up with the fast-paced, ever-changing trends.
Skills you'll gain: Besides the massive amount of hands-on experience, we will teach you everything we know about online marketing. You will learn how to: create a web presence, leverage social bookmarking websites, conduct online guerrilla marketing and get the world wide web to work for you. In addition, you will have the opportunity to gain exposure to the inner working of a startup environment, and get to work closely with the executive team. We are hoping to cultivate your growth, which will allow GotGame to grow in turn. We understand that a company's success is closely tied to the continued progress of its members. Thus, we will work diligently to make sure you are getting what you want and need out of the internship, while you will provide our team with a solid, motivated, and talented individual. We encourage initiative, creativity, and nerdiness---so join us at Genesis Interactive, Inc.!
