Columbia Records Internships Announced!

Here's the info (you can always say we're cool...you know, I'm hot there...yeah thats right bitches. I said that shit.):

Columbia Records is looking for hardworking, eager students willing to dedicate time in the A&R Department. Experience is not required, but it is suggested. Candidates must possess passion and a vast knowledge of music.

We are looking for taste makers to provide Columbia Records with new acts as well as assist the A&R department in various tasks. This is not a typical internship – there will be minimal Xeroxing and coffee fetching – and a great deal of self-motivation will be necessary.

Candidates must be able to dedicate time to concerts and other industry related events outside of the office, and be eager to experience the inner-workings of a major record label.

This internship is a great introduction to the industry. We are looking for quick learners with their fingers on the pulse of the current music climate.

You must be a self-starter who is not afraid to ask questions and initiate conversations. We only want people who are ambitious, excited and eager to learn. We need students who are responsible, reliable, ambitious, organized, and able to multi-task.

While by no means required, the following skills are a plus. Please let us know if you have knowledge of any of the following:
• HTML
• Graphic Design
• Digital Video Editing
• Music production

This is an unpaid internship and you must be able to receive college credit.
Only serious applicants need apply.

If interested please send a cover letter and resume to: columbiarecords.arintern@sonybmg.com
