Nearly every t-shirt that I own, I got for free. College is a great place to amass free t-shirts, but now that I’ve been out a few years, my collection is starting to wear thin (in more ways than one). I’m not sure what I’m going to do, but I don’t want to start paying for them. I’ll leave that to the customers of Michael Stars who throw down 50… 60… 100 bucks for a tee. Hey, they’re nice looking shirts, and there’s definitely a market for them. It may not be recession chic, but it works. Just look at Jessica Alba, Courteney Cox, Eva Longoria, and many more celebs wearing Michael Stars shirts. If that doesn’t impress you, then maybe you should check out the charity work that Michael Stars does. It may be hard to justify spending a lot on a t-shirt, but it definitely won’t be hard to justify taking an internship with Michael Stars in Hawthorne, CA.
As L.A. Magazine put it, “Michael Stars is the 20-year old T-shirt company many credit with giving birth to the trend for fitted T’s.” The company’s story is pretty cool, and you’d have to think that a company built on t-shirts is a fun place to work. Right now they’re looking for quite a few interns, so you have the chance to find out first hand. Their Internships page lists opportunities in Merchandising, Human Resources, Design, Public Relations/Marketing, and Corporate Retail. The internships are “for credit,” which typically means unpaid, but maybe you can get some free shirts. To apply for an internship with Michael Stars, send a cover letter and resume to jobs@michaelstars.com.
