'Help Wanted' - Post Unpaid Internships & Other Unpaid Opps (NO COMMENTS, PLEASE!)

[MicheleIman]

^I totally agree! I live in New York so that means I must make money to breathe! LOL, the internships are wonderful if mommy and daddy will take care of you.

 

[Meg]

yes of course but a lot of them are ONLY for people who will receive college credit....

The Julia one seems like she just wants free help and knows she can get it Oh well, with her connections, it would still be more than worth it

 

[dorien]

right on,

not enough entry-level jobs

so far i've been applying like a mad man
even though i don't meet their expertise requirements,
hoping that my work speaks for itself...nothing.
nada!

i'm thinking of giving in, and taking an internship just to get my foot in the door, and getting a second job to pay the bills...no mommy or daddy here to pay the bills for me.

 

[shirleebee]

an internship is literally essential. if it goes really well, it can turn into a f/t gig at the same company, or the people you work with can help give you the leverage you need to get an entry-level position elsewhere.

It's getting off topic in here. Let's move the internship discussions to the Internship thread please ... and keep this thread for postings of opportunities ... internships and jobs.

Intern needed for stylist Lori Goldstein from fashionista.com:

Super stylist Lori Goldstein needs an intern! In case you didn't know, she does a lot of freelance work (think V and well stories from the July Vogue Italia we all know and love) and she's recently been named the Fashion Director of the LA Times Magazine.

What you can expect:
-Managing the office
-Assisting with the checking in/out of clothes for photos shoots (translation: you'll be swimming in Chanel)
-possibly assisting on set of fittings and photo shoots (translation: first prove you're not a total psycho, then you can touch Coco)

It's your choice of either full or part-time, but the hours are 9am - 5pm, and they need someone who lives in NYC immediately. Previous experience preferred, but rest assured you'll get a ton of experience working with her. In fact, the last person they hired (from our last posting,) is now Lori's freelancer working on "BIG" shoots.

Resumes go to Rebecca Grice at [email protected]

Intern duties include (but are not limited too) portfolio & tearsheet management, assisting on the production of photoshoots and related tasks, managing mailings & packages and model castings.

DNA Models Male Division Internship

Do you like pretty boys? Can you multi-task and organize comp cards like no other?

If so, DNA's men's division is looking for an intern to start in August and last through show season - at the very least.

You'll be paid in school credit, either high school or college. But, honestly, with the amount of male models you'll see on a daily basis, who needs classes?

A fashion background is preferred but not required. And a lack of interest in being a model yourself is definitely required.

We can't imagine anything more crazy or exciting than working at a modeling agency during Fashion Week - so send your resumes and a brief email to [email protected].

Coutorture is looking for interns...

A key part of our Fashion Week preparation is extending our Coutorture family with the addition of 2 interns for the Fall season.

What does being a Coutorture intern mean? There's the unglamorous stuff like assisting, sample running and photo uploading. However, for the right interns, there is the opportunity to assist with Fashion Week coverage and content for the site. Plus, we shoot our own cool original editorial photos.


There is no monetary compensation, but we can provide documentation for college credit and the occasional freebie. If you (or a friend) is interested, please send a resume, cover letter and 2 writing samples to [email protected].


Since this opportunity involves a lot of hands on work, NYC based applicants only, please.

Work from home fashion jobs

Hello!

I have a Very Good idea that I want to start, but I need your help.

I'm looking for a web designer who is TOTALLY up-to-date with what's going on in the fashion industry and can work with me and my diva attitude.
(I'm fair, but I am a bit of a diva, you know)!

And then, I need a fashion photographer/video-taper who can travel once a month within Europe. You need to be up with latest photo editing tricks, etc etc...basically your work should look professional...

PM me with rates and work examples. I don't have really much $$ at the moment to pay, but if the idea works (and it will, since everything I put my mind to works) and you want to partner with me, we will all become wealthy darlings, we will.
