FITSHIT is an athletic apparel company committed to bringing fantastic gear and wit into the humorless world of active wear. Because we believe that you can be serious about being active and still lighten up about the style that you wear.

Job Description

 **Read carefully before applying**:

 **This summer internship (starting June 17') is unpaid for 3 months - yet, it's my promise that the skills and exposure you will have related to [growing, scaling, and marketing an e-commerce business] will far exceed any paid internship you will be offered.**

We are looking for an intern (~10-15 hours/week) to take over full responsibilities of our public relations outreach. You will be provided with detailed trainings to support your ability to execute on all required tasks.

We're looking for someone who takes responsibility & ownership for their projects and takes pride in their work ethic. You will be responsible for taking over our Public Relations outreach. This means you will be reaching out to media outlets and seeking opportunities to partner with industry influencers.

You will be trained in all of this, yet we do hold a high value for self-leadership and self-learning, so if you aren't willing to do the work and learn quickly, this position is not for you.

You'll also be part of and get to see "behind the scenes" of what it takes to grow and scale a [multi million dollar e-commerce business].

Qualifications

While we're not super serious about "resume experience" we do want to make sure you fit well with the four qualifications for this position listed below:

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!
