Getaround is looking for interns on both the tech and business side.

We are a San Francisco based startup changing the way people use transportation. We have both paid and unpaid internships available and can provide transportation reimbursement for interns looking to commute to the city.

Shoot me an e-mail at avery@getaround.com if you're interested.

Facebook is always looking for interns (SW Engineering isn't listed on the intern page but I'd be very surprised if we were already full). http://www.facebook.com/careers/ http://www.facebook.com/careers/department.php?dept=interns

As a Facebook employee, can you do anything to move my resume to the "top of the pile", ie through a referral?

(This is a throwaway account, but I'd love to get in touch.)

TripAdvisor. Newton, MA. Come help me build me be cool stuff!

I'd recommend putting a link in your post. Obviously, we can search, but it's always nice to have it easily available :-)

Edit: Here's a link to the tripadvisor jobs page http://www.tripadvisor.com/careers/jobs_engineering

But I can't seem to find any intern positions. Possibly just have to apply for the Software Dev position, and mention you're looking for an internship. Do you mind clarifying, sanj?

www.recojeans.com (site is getting a new skin right now and is a a little ugly) We're a sustainable fashion start-up that has a full time developer but could use some tech help. Our fabric is made from denim factory scraps. It would be a good way for a programmer interested in business to learn marketing (I've learned a huge amount over the past 8 months). Just shoot me a message at kevin@recojeans.com if you're inte…

Would totally apply if I didn't have horrible fashion sense. On the other hand, maybe I could learn a lot.

When I joined, I knew nothing about fashion. Now I know a teensy bit. Shoot me a message if you're interested!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

If you don't mind me asking, what exactly are you looking for in candidates? I applied with what I felt like was a fairly strong resume (two years working for a RoR shop, a summer doing research on create a javascript security sandbox via WebWorkers), and didn't even get an interview. This is starting to sound a bit like a complaint, but I'm not trying to complain here, I'm just curious. What _are_ you looking for?

There's a list of qualifications here: http://twitter.com/job.html?jvi=ohuuVfwU Sorry, I can't say why you specifically didn't get an interview. There are a lot of factors to consider and a lot of candidates. No recruiting process is perfect. If you're really passionate about working at Twitter, please re-apply and include a cover letter. cc me if you feel like it (dloft) and I'll make sure you at least get a respons…

Thanks dloft, I appreciate the response. I know you can't really answer why _I_ got rejected, I was just curious if there was something in particular they were looking for. Applying to companies and getting rejected tends to give very little feedback, and I'd like to know what I should be focusing on improving. I guess that's kind of par for the course though.
