Wedding season is very quickly approaching (we actually have our first 2010 event this weekend!) which means it’s time to start the search for our summer intern. We’re excited to be able to share what we do with someone who is eager to learn! The internship will begin mid-April and run through mid-July. This is an unpaid position, but will provide a unique blend of hands on experience and entrepreneurial opportunity. Interns will be expected to be available for 10 hours per week in addition to weekend events.

Scheduling appointments for venue tours and meetings with new vendors
Online research for current clients
Assistance with event design
Assistance with daily tasks associated with running a small business
Attendance at monthly industry meetings

Event set-up and clean-up
Qualifications
Proven record of being a self starter and effectively making quick decisions
Proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel
Experience with social media (Facebook, Twitter, Blogging)
Exceptional writing and communication skills
Experience working in high stress environments

Weekend and evening availability
The ideal candidate will be a design or hospitality major (or graduate). The ability to draw or sketch designs and experience with photoshop will be looked upon highly. No previous wedding experience is needed. We aren’t necessarily looking for someone who loves wedding; we are looking for someone eager to embrace event design and learn what it takes to run a successful small business.
If you are interested in applying, please send a detailed cover letter and resume to info@lndevents.com. Your cover letter should showcase why you are an ideal candidate and explain what your long-term career goals are. Please use ‘Summer Intern Application’ as the subject line of your email. Resumes will be accepted until March 1, 2010.
