The Barbarian Group Internships

The Barbarian Group

I don’t know if you noticed, but internships are kind of hard to find now. Summer opportunities are mostly filled, and recruiting for Fall internships hasn’t quite begun yet. That means that I’ll be taking the next two weeks off from posting, and then I’ll start back up, hopefully, with lots of Fall opportunities to tell you about. I chose today’s company strictly become of their name: The Barbarian Group. I had a great history teacher in high school who loved talking about barbarians. The only problem was that the word often came out of his mouth with a bunch of spit. I chose to sit directly to his left, which was out of the zone of expectoration, where I could sit safely and be amused by the flying saliva as it came dangerously close to landing on my classmates’ textbooks. That’s why I like the word barbarian. You’ll like The Barbarian Group, because they’re a totally sweet “digital services and creation company” based in Boston, NYC, and San Francisco. Their employees also collectively own 3,909 pairs of shoes. You can add to that.

Barbaric Internships

I love The Barbarian Group’s website, which makes sense because that’s what they do. You can learn a ton about the company from browsing, so I’m going to let you do that and have some fun (it’s a pretty entertaining site). Right now The Barbarian Group is looking for a Summer Web Development Intern at their San Francisco office. They need someone “who has experience with front-end development and knowledge of Ruby on Rails” and “design skills are a plus.” The internship is paid, and you can apply by sending your resume and portfolio to jobs@barbariangroup.com.
