Internship Period: We are looking for a media intern throughout the year

Job Description:

The Panigram Resort summer internship is a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in a foreign culture and get hands-on experience developing a resort from the ground-up. Your office will be the Panigram project site, located in the beautiful Jessore District of southern Bangladesh. Our past interns have designed and built pavilions, researched alternative energy, and taught English to local school children. We are looking for intrepid, adventurous students who are not afraid to take initiative. Because the conditions at Panigram can be both physically and mentally challenging, we want to hire students who can easily adapt to different cultures and can handle a camping-type of environment (the accommodations in Jessore are very basic.)

The media intern will be responsible for documenting the design and construction progress and the internship experience through photography, blogging, and video. This intern will need to prepare a blog entry (with photos) and a small 5-10 minute video clip each week to post on our website. The media intern will also be responsible for building up our social networking presence.

Qualifications:

Sophomore, Junior, and Seniors majoring in journalism, communications, or media are invited to apply. Must have experience with videography and video editing. The intern should also have excellent writing skills and experience with photography. Knowledge of various social media sites (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, etc. is also essential.)

Other:

Interns will be responsible for providing their own transportation to and from Bangladesh. Housing, food, and transportation within Bangladesh will be provided along with a small stipend for incidental expenses.
