Description:

Do you enjoy surfing through the series of tubes that is the interweb?  Sick of being told that your extensive online knowledge is of the useless variety?  Want to prove your parents wrong by benefiting from your interest in comic books?  Want to work with a group of people who genuinely like one another in an environment that encourages creativity, individuality, laughter and irreverence?  Want to make your friends jealous?  Want to work for MashON?

MashON is an exciting and unique company free of the cubicle-centric corporate mentality.  Our dart board, pool table, mandatory participation in company-wide Jenga tournaments, casual-only dress code and Donut Fridays, presented by our very own Ambassador of Fun, help create an atmosphere conducive to not sucking.  We focus on building a host of web-based tools which allow users to combine their own photos, videos and sounds with premium licensed content, to easily create multimedia comic strips, animated novels and e-cards. The resulting mashup can be shared with friends via email or posted to popular social networking websites.  Our partners include Electronic Arts, MTV, Marvel, TOKYOPOP, Virgin Comics and more!

MashON is looking for interns who are extremely computer & internet savvy, familiar with user-generated content and social networking websites (YouTube, MySpace, Facebook), creative thinkers, problem solvers and dont mind playing with websites and digital comic books all day.  Interns you may be but we will treat you like real live human beings.  You will not be forced to wear badges labeled “Intern.”  You will be allowed to make eye contact with MashON staff members, address us by our first names and speak prior to being spoken to.  Most importantly, we will respect, value and request your insightful opinion concerning all things MashON.  Our interns will support the day-to-day operations of the MashON Creative and Technical teams, with duties such as:

1. Creating User-Generated Content (UGC)
2. Providing Application Usability Feedback (QA)
3. Performing competitive industry research
