Campus Catalyst

October 13th, 2009

We’re a rapidly growing internet start-up that’s ready to shift some paradigms, and we want you to be a part of it.

We’re assembling a team of Campus Catalysts who will help champion our new web product, Glass, on campuses across the US. (It’s so new, we haven’t even announced it yet. So if you get the job, you’ll be one of the first to even know of its existence and what it is.)

We want those creative thinkers and doers who love new technology and keeping ahead of the curve. The perfect candidate is also hungry for top-notch, real-world experience.

Since you’ll be working from your couch and your campus, you should be responsible, detail-oriented, outgoing, creative and curious. You’ll be one of the first people in the world to get an invite to Glass and you’ll be out there sharing it with others and getting feedback as well. This is great training for those interested in technology, start-ups, marketing, advertising, business, people who just like access to things before everyone else, and people who like legitimately cool things.

As a Catalyst you will receive plenty of perks, including:

• Real-world experience and responsibility
(No grunt work—we aren’t fans of those internships that just give you filing or ask you to fetch coffee. We want you to learn, too.)
• The inside scoop on Glass while we’re in stealth mode
• Invitation codes to hand out during the private Beta phase*
• Catalyst Gear that only people in the company get
• Swag to share
• The potential for an all-expense paid trip to meet the founders and Catalysts from other colleges
(Our offices are pretty nice, if we do say so ourselves)

Procrastinators need not apply, as you will be supervising yourself most of the time. (We believe you should be treated as adults.) Being a Catalyst only requires 6-8 hours of work per week that can be completed from your couch or on your campus, this includes regular communication with our College Outreach Coordinator via email or phone.

To apply for this internship, please send us your resume to catalyst@borderstylo.com. Please put your school and name in the subject line of your email. No faxes please! (We’re an internet company…) And, if you want, include some interesting details about yourself as to why we should hire you, we’ll read those too.

We look forward to hearing from you. Virtual high five!

*Note: We want to make sure we are clear that our product will initially be by invitation only…seriously, you will be a gatekeeper on your campus. This is a pretty early look and you’ll be working with some exciting and confidential information.
