STUDENT EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY: WRITE FOR THE BUZZ!
PLEASE NOTE: THE DEADLINE FOR THE POSITION HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO NOV 1ST!
This week we just want to announce an important opportunity: The OpenLab is looking for students to contribute to our student community blog site, “The Buzz!”
Beginning in mid-October, new OpenLab Student Bloggers will write a short post every two weeks about whatever interests you and your fellow students. Your posts could be about you: maybe you’re from another country, a parent, coming back to school after years away, a veteran, etc. Or you could write about what interests you and your friends and classmates: music, sports, food, movies, the 2012 election… Currently we have writers who write about technology, food, student life, and more.
As well as writing on the site, OpenLab Student Bloggers will work with the OpenLab team to create conversation on the OpenLab by commenting on the posts written by other student bloggers and members of the OpenLab community.
And there’s more: In addition to being great for your resume, student bloggers will receive a stipend of $300 per semester.
To Apply: Contact us at openlab@citytech.cuny.edu by NOVEMBER 1. In your email please explain the point of view you’ll be bringing to your posts and why you should be chosen as one of our student bloggers. Please attach your resume and a short writing sample (just two or three paragraphs). In your writing sample you should write in the style you think you’ll use on your blog; there’s no need to be formal—you’re not being graded on this!—but you’ll need to be clear and interesting.
If you already work within the CUNY system or for the Research Foundation of CUNY, please note that, too.
