Under Armour has launched an interesting digital search for two outstanding candidates to join the sports performance apparel brand this summer as members of the “Ultimate Intern Team”.
“Under Armour is constantly looking for fresh and innovative ways to reach our audience and tell our story,” said Dan Mecchi, Under Armour’s Director of Digital Media. “We’re raising the stakes on the typical internship by offering two passionate and talented candidates the opportunity to join our team.”
What’s interesting about the search is the way you apply. Students must submit a 140-character cover letter and resume via Under Armour’s Facebook page through May 12. Many people can barely organize a thought in only 140-characters, so Under Armour is really narrowing the field. If you abuse Twitlonger and Deck.ly, you might have trouble with this one.
To qualify, you must be a current undergraduate or graduate student who will be returning to school after the summer. The selected interns will get a $5,000 scholarship paid directly to their school. The final 100 candidates will be announced on May 16. 10 finalists will eventually be selected for a Skype interview on May 23. From those 10, two Ultimate Interns will be announced at the end of May. While you have to live in Baltimore from June 13 – July 15, all travel and housing expenses are covered as part of the internship.
Pretty awesome way to apply for a position. For all the details, visit Under Armour’s Facebook Page.
