Classifieds: Lazy college student looking for intern

April 26, 2012 by David Singer

Description:
I am looking for a hardworking, self-motivated student to serve as a Classwork Intern during Fall 2012 and assist in classwork and homework from the 16 hours of classes I will be taking. Classes will cover a range of subjects and intern will be expected to spend 3-5 hours each night on homework.

Required experience:
The ideal candidate should be a current university student and have at least two (2) semesters experience with a college course load. An ideal candidate has experience with essays, book reports, research papers, Powerpoint presentations and speeches. Strong writing skills, ability to communicate with professor and knowledge of collegiate life are a must. Applicant has no problem putting my name on their work.

Stage acting experience and ability to “be me” during group projects, presentations or student-teacher meetings is an added bonus.

Required skills:
The ideal candidate has good time management skills and is comfortable with extremely late nights, early morning and busy weekends. Applicant should have strong work ethic but no ethical problem with doing my homework. Again, can’t stress this enough. I hope you’re fine with cheating.

Applicant is not easily distracted and will have no problem working while I watch television and check my Facebook.

Compensation:
Applicant will receive the chance to work alongside a wonderful student (me) and build their resume and portfolio. Intern will gain experience with university work which will benefit them in the future. This is an unpaid internship.

How to apply:
Please send a resume padded with volunteer work and inflated job titles, a portfolio full of your best school work and a writing sample explaining why cheating for me and deceiving my professors will not, in any way, compromise your morals.

Additional information:
If an intern fits well into my day to day school life, there is a possibility of the internship continuing into the spring semester. That internship will also be unpaid.
