Today is a great day, it marks the start of our very first Super Intern Search, where we find awesome green internships for college students.
Watch the above video for all the details! For the very first super intern search, we're looking for a summer intern for a company called Wattzy.
If you'd like to apply: Here is the important information

- 'Like' The Green Collar Job Guide on Facebook so that we can follow up with you
- With you video attached post the following to your Facebook status: "@Greencollarjobguideforcollegestudents this is my video application for the Wattzy Super Intern Search" This will be how you submit your application, we will not accept applications in any other form.
- The last day for submissions is on Monday May 31st, and we will only be accepting the first 100 applications.
- We will follow up with best applications on May 31.
Why Are we using Facebook and Video instead of resumes? - Resume are too susceptible to good writing skills that cover up actual passion and ability to get things done, video is not.
- With the video, you still have to prove your qualifications
- Growing companies really value interns but don't have to time so sort through stacks of resumes
- Everyone is already on Facebook
- Video is harder to make, so naturally only those who are the most passionate will apply.
I look forward to seeing all the applications.
As always, I'm always looking for feedback and input and if you have any questions please ask them.
