Ask HN: Looking for interns / entry level?
Is your company looking for interns for the summer?
Do you care more about talent than years of work experience?
Are you an inexperienced but ambitious hacker/designer/<anything which may be useful to a real company> looking for something more stimulating than mowing lawns?
This is your thread.
As always, if your position is location specific, please say so in the post.
- ajstiles 17y agoWe're hiring a bunch (interns and full-timers in search engineering, search tools, query intelligence) at AT&T Interactive (YellowPages.com) in Glendale CA. Email me for more info: astiles@attinteractive.com.
- ewingpatriarch 17y agoYelp's looking for coders in SF, both full-time and as summer interns: http://www.yelp.com/jobs http://www.yelp.com/jobs
- shawnps 17y agoSubmitted my resume (but forgot to attach cover letter, darn), thanks for the heads up! Seems like it'd be a cool place to work.
- tptacek 17y agoChicago or New York. Paid. Help build a cool new Rails product, or contribute to security research on hugely important industry projects: you pick. We'll take on interns year round. We're looking for exactly one thing: willingness to code (in any language).
- alexgartrell 17y agoMETA: It'd probably be more helpful for this to show up in the fall instead of in the spring. Many students are extended (and accept) internship offers prior to the start of the Spring Semester. Editted to add: This is is no way a complaint about this thread showing up now. I'll definitely be forwarding it along to folks I know here and do appreciate it. I'd just appreciate having two, one with the fall recruiting cycle and one with the spring.
- kluikens 17y agoThis is true. But some CS majors, like myself, are still free.
- dschobel 17y agoAgreed but I imagine there are some talented guys and girls out there who missed the traditional recruiting cycle. The post was inspired by http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1089455 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1089455
- alexgartrell 17y agoIt's probably worth adding that I'm quite pleased with the internship offer I've been extended and that when I really would have appreciated it was during freshman/sophomore year when options were more limited. I just think it'd probably help out the companies looking for interns (realistically, possible future hires) to get in early.
- kylec 17y agoI hope it's OK to post this here, but I'm looking for an entry level position in the software industry myself. An internship would be great as well, especially if there's a possibility of getting hired full-time afterwards: http://careers.stackoverflow.com/kyle http://careers.stackoverflow.com/kyle kyle.cronin@gmail.com
- andrewljohnson 17y agoWe're looking for an intern to live in our guest room near Lake Tahoe and program. Email me at andrew@gaiagps.com. You should like dogs and the outdoors, and expect little to no pay, beyond room and board. If you want to get here in the winter, that's fine too. The skiing is great.
- devink 17y agoI'm a senior at WPI, an ECE major. I also have a good CS background. I have experience with systems programming and software defined radio.

- chrischen 17y agoSeeking Co-founder for Flixa, a service to help independent filmmaker self-distribute their films online. Telecommute. Look at my profile for more info. EDIT: Also should mention I'm applying to YC, so if you wanted to do this but needed an idea here's your chance!

- Fixnum 17y agoYour front page is missing two "."s, which is ironic considering that you use "Period" as a sentence. Hope this helps.
- deleted 17y ago[deleted]
- gommm 17y agoWe're looking for an intern in Shanghai. Paid but not much (but more than enough to cover the cost of living in Shanghai)... You would be working on Rails app and play with cool and fun things like cappuccino, redis and mongodb. Possibility of getting hired full time later on. So, if you want to discover China and join a small growing startup (we do both consulting and our own products), send me a mail at guillaume -squiggly sign- agiletomato.com. We're also interested in designers...
- aschobel 17y agoSnaptic is hiring interns and full time. We build apps for Android / iPhone, and have shiny backend goodies. #1 productivity app on Android, and TechCrunch/MobileCrunch named us(3banana) one of the top ten apps on Android. We speak scala, Obj-C, java, python, Thrift, whatever gets the job down. Please shoot us an email at hn@snaptic.com Looking for folks to come hack with us in South Park, SF.

- bjoernw 17y agoAre there companies here who are looking for marketing interns that embody the hacking lifestyle?
- myoung8 17y agoYes, shoot me an email if you're interested.
- gsaines 17y agoSure, shoot me an email if you're interested. I checked out your blog, and you're actually dealing with quite a few of the marketing challenges that we're facing in the educational market. The comment about marketing to students: "Marketing to college students is like being in marketing boot camp. You deal with one of the most distracted audiences and if you get them to do stuff you're good" seems to ring true for me. Also, I liked your idea for online social marketing for Universities to students. It's an interesting concept, I wonder if it will bear fruit.
- coffeemug 17y agoI couldn't find a way to contact you from your sites. Could you put up your contact info?
- kluikens 17y agoJunior in the CS program at the University of Arizona. I love Python, can code well in Java, and am picking up C this semester. I like networking (I participate in a Networks Research Lab), finance, and all things grandiose and complicated. I need to get away from University jobs that entail plugging in cables or adding content to websites. I want to write production software. I'm free for this Summer and looking for an internship that's paid (or at least living expenses covered) and one that's hopefully outside the state of Arizona (or even the US! :). Kevin Luikens (kluikens@gmail.com)
- jmatt 17y agoYou should come to a Tucson Startup Drinks get together. It's a combination of small business and startup business owners and employees in the Tucson area. There also tends to be a lot of like-minded students in attendance. The google group is much more active than the website. http://tucson.startupdrinks.com/ http://tucson.startupdrinks.com/

- adammika 17y agoI'm currently in my senior year at the University of Minnesota Duluth, finishing up my Computer Science degree. I really enjoy programming in general without an allegiance to any one particular language. The past two summers I've interned for IBM in Rochester MN.

(Practically entry-level as I only have ~1 year of experience) bsandrow@gmail.com

- jj_aa 17y agoI'd love to find a generalist who can try to find cool, scalable ways to help a rapidly growing, profitable company get really reliable, efficient, and secure. We're located right on Union Square in New York, and we specialize in the profitable parts of the music industry. Oh, and this would be a paid, full-time job, not an internship.
- angelbob 17y agoWe're in Mountain View (SF Bay Area) looking for Rails/JRuby/Java coders, preferably folks who are okay with all three. I got hired with just Rails experience, so you might too if you're good :-) If you've played with JRuby and have strong opinions on how Ruby and Java should integrate, that'd be a big plus. This is usually a full-time job, with no problem with entry-level folk. But I'll bet we'd be happy to have an intern as well. I'll ask the guys at work :-) It's a small programming team (about 8 full-time), but a very stable non-startup company. You won't get rich, but you'll have a lot of say in what we're doing.

- ig1 17y agoI've just been having a play around with Timetric and it looks pretty neat. I used to be the developer for Bloomberg's CIX (an excel like language for historical & real-time financial time-series calculations) so it's always interesting to see new people in the space :-) I'm based in London as well, so if you'd fancy grabbing coffee or something sometime feel free to shoot me an email.

- kaens 17y agoI'm experienced with a variety of technologies, although I'm currently most competent with python. I have a lot of experience doing web development and web-scraping/spidering in python. I have the understanding of (X)HTML, CSS, javascript, and HTTP that comes with making web-apps in languages that aren't necessarily just beefed-up templating languages. I also have working knowledge of C, and can read a smattering of other languages. Extensive experience administering linux servers, minor (but growing) experience with BSD. Can work with windows. I'm in NE Ohio. I'm open to remote work, or relocating, but am currently suffering from a bad case of brokeitis, so I would either need to be offered a relocation package, or work remotely for a month or two to acquire the necessary funds. Unless you're in NE Ohio, that is. If you have any questions, would like to see an example of work I've done, or would like to contact me for any other reason, shoot me an email at jeremiah.dodds@gmail.com

- ekiru 17y agoI'm a high school senior looking for a programming internship for the summer. I'm admittedly quite inexperienced(both in terms of hobbyist activities, having worked on no projects of any significant size, and in terms of work in the field, of which I have no experience yet), but I am a fast learner and a very hard worker when I have a project to work towards. I'd be happy to take either a paid or an unpaid internship, although unpaid internships could be a problem if they required me to relocate outside of Tennessee because I don't know that I could afford to find housing.
