1) You are an executor. You get sh*t done.

2) You love to learn new skills.

3) You love thinking outside the box.

4) You are not afraid to offer critical feedback.

If you think you're a good fit for this position here's what to do:

1) Send a 1-2min video to josh[at]community[at]fitshit.co telling me why you think you're a good fit.  (make sure to use the subject line: FITSHIT PR Intern & include at least one curse word in the video - extra points for staying 'on brand')

2) Share with me your work availability for the next 3 months.

Look forward to hearing from you!
