Today is my birthday, and since I run this show, I want to extend the celebration to all of you. There’s nothing that I want more for my birthday than for you to tell your friends about One Day, One Job and One Day, One Internship (sad, I know). Unfortunately, instead of that, I got an iPod Touch. That’d be really sweet, except I already have an iPhone. (Ok, I didn’t really get the iPod Touch for my birthday. I won it in a guest blogging contest on The Talent Buzz with a post about networking on Twitter, but let’s pretend it was a birthday gift.) Since I think that regifting is completely acceptable, I’m willing to trade my iPod Touch for your telling your friends about one or both of our sites. I want to give everybody a chance to win, so we’re going to turn this into a little contest.
Here’s how it works:
The contest is pretty straight forward, so I hope that you’ll take a few minutes to make my birthday a great one and spread the word about us. Oh yeah, and don’t try to cheat. We will disqualify anyone who tries to take advantage of how easy it is to enter.
In case you’re wondering, it’s an 8 GB iPod Touch that we’re giving away. It’s the old version, but it’s brand new in the box and still awesome. It’s definitely worth the small effort that it will take to tell your friends about One Day, One Job and One Day, One Internship.
Here’s a sample note that you can use to tell your friends about us. You can e-mail it to them, IM it to them, or even post it on Facebook. Just make sure that you get the links right so that they can sign up.
Hey!
I know that searching for jobs and internships online can be really painful, but I found two sites that actually make the process not suck. They’re called One Day, One Job and One Day, One Internship.
Ok, I admit it. I was going to keep One Day, One Job and One Day, One Internship to myself. I’m a selfish person, and I didn’t want you to apply for the same jobs or internships that I’m applying for, but they bribed me with the chance to win an iPod Touch. For every five friends that I get to sign up to one of their e-mails lists, I get an entry in the contest (once you sign up, you can enter too).
Don’t worry, they’re really cool and won’t spam you. You’ll just get a daily e-mail telling you about a really cool company and what kind of jobs or internships the company offers. If you ever get sick of it or hopefully find the job or internship of your dreams, unsubscribing is really easy.
If you’re looking for an entry level job for after you graduate college, sign up for One Day, One Job’s daily e-mails.
If you’re looking for internships, sign up for One Day, One Internship’s daily e-mails.
Be sure to let me know that you signed up so that I can tell them that I referred you. I really want that iPod Touch.
If you have any questions about the contest, just leave a message in the comments, and we’ll answer it promptly.

Thanks for all your help
Is the contest over? I still need one of those fancy new Ipods :)
Yep, it’s over, but we do have a new contest running with a much bigger prize.
