Executive Assistant - Orem, UT - Due Apr 7


Research Internship (part-time) - Due April 10

The ideal candidate would be a student who is available to work 10-20 hours a week via the internet and can commit for the duration of a few months or a semester, though the time commitment is flexible and negotiable. They need not be libertarian, per se, but they should be sympathetic to free market alternatives to government largess, understand basic economic concepts, be able to read critically, write clearly and concisely, could work well on their own and would be enthusiastic about their work. It would be a non-paid position, but perhaps a good opportunity to get university credit (if available, applicable or needed in your program). This is also something that they could put on their resume. If the internship proved to work out well, I'm happy to connect them with future opportunities as well as provide them a letter of recommendation and professional references.

Please send me a resume and a cover letter along with availability.

I will be in Utah the week of April 14-18 and am hoping to make a trip to Provo one of those days. If any students would be interested in meeting with me personally to learn more about a possible internship, I am happy to set up an appointment.

KVM Internship - Utah - Due this Saturday!

Apply by sending resumes to taylor@kvmfoundation.org.  Position closes Saturday.

KVM Foundation is a non-profit organization started and run by BYU students.  Its purpose is to empower youth in third-world countries to become creators of change, breaking their own generational poverty.  KVM was chosen as the winner of the 2014 BYU Hunger Banquet's scholarship competition and recognized as one of the new and upcoming forces in the non-profit realm. KVM is expanding quickly as a important force in India. KVM's first English Institution will be launched June 2014. Additionally, our new Google hang out lab will be launched and ready for the opening of the institution in June. This integrated lab provides our Indian students with opportunities to be paired with a BYU student to practice their new English skills and make new friends.  Below is some more information about KVM.  You can also look at their website at www.kvmfoundation.org.  

Two BYU students are currently in Visakhapatnam, India, breaking ground on KVM's flagship center.  The foundation is looking for three more interns to replace the current interns and help launch KVM's first English Institution this June 2014. Additionally, our new Google hang out lab will be launched and ready for the opening of the institution in June. This integrated lab provides our Indian students with opportunities to be paired with a BYU student to practice their new English skills and make new friends. 

Interns need to be self-motivated as their duties will be diverse, tiresome, exciting, and rewarding.  They will have the opportunity to teach, mentor, and apply basic business and administrative skills as they work to empower youth and give them the skills and opportunities they need to succeed.  KVM is a non-profit that is built around a self sustaining revenue model, enabling growth and future international expansion.  Applicants should be initiative-takers, creative, hardworking, and ready for the experience of a life time. 

Applications are being accepted until THIS Saturday, March 7th, 2014 at 11:59 PM after which interviews will occur the week after with position offers extended. Visas and airplane tickets will be issued the following week.

We are happy to have you aboard!

AN OVERVIEW OF KVM:
KVM is an acronym that stands for three Telugu words: KalaVidya, and Marpu. Translated, these words mean Dream, Educate, and Change, the three pillars of the KVM Foundation. KVM largely supports the idea: Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. The latest trends in research show that while "giving" away aid in less developed countries may help to temporarily ease the burden of poverty, it eventually backfires, especially when only “fish” are given without further instruction. Oftentimes organizations give clothing, hygiene kits, and the like with the hope that such items will enable individuals to help themselves. Unfortunately, this type of aid only serves to create a dependency upon these "free" gifts. KVM is not giving anything away to our candidates and students. Our students first qualify to receive our service through interviews which allow us to test English aptitude, career plans, financial means, etc.  Our program teaches students skills which they will use to construct their individual futures. They will be empowered to become creators of circumstances and not just creatures of them.

KVM has 2 major focuses: The first, teaching of conversational English skills, self-reliance skills, and the realization of options (“dreaming skills”) to students of higher education. Many students have proficient English grammar, sentence structure, and have recognized degrees in their own fields. The problem lies in both the pronunciation and communication of ideas. Students can regurgitate information, sentences, and ideas they have been told, but cannot utilize the language to express themselves and their ideas.

After students complete the 6-month program, KVM graduates will be eligible for the second arm of KVM which is job placement. We have formed relationships with several companies in Vishakhapatnam, India who have agreed to thoroughly consider hiring graduates of our program. As KVM becomes more recognized both in the city and globally, we anticipate many companies will look to our company for their staffing needs. 
KVM’s goal is to not just assist our students, but also has a goal within the next 5 years to be in Vietnam, Cambodia and Peru as these are markets that have been identified as candidates of KVM’s program.

We know we can make a difference in people’s lives. You can make a difference. As Ghandi said, “Be the change you want to see in the world”. We strive to live this each day. We are here to make those dreams a reality. For so many, the goal is to simply feed their family for the week. We are here to raise vision, enable power, and instill confidence to break free of their situation. Your involvement will be integral to the success of this beginning institution. Great responsibility is coupled with this position. You can visit our website at kvmfoundation.org for more information as well as access to the online application form.


San Antonio Internship - Due Mar 5 (tomorrow)

Hello everyone,

All of us over here at Solid Waste Management enjoyed visiting with you.  As I mentioned during our discussion, we offer a paid summer internship working in the department’s Planning and Strategy division.  This is a great opportunity to become familiar with environmental policy at the local government level.  Additionally, the City of San Antonio conducts its annual budgeting process over the summer which allows you to see firsthand how all of the mind-numbing lectures in public finance actually have practical relevance in government.

The internship requires potential candidates to have a working knowledge of quantitative analysis and statistical testing.  You’ll be given two to three projects in which you’ll be required to gather relevant field/policy data, analyze it, create policy options, and present recommendations to city administrators. 

If you’re interested in the internship, please complete the attached excel test and email it to me at matthew.hobson@sanantonio.gov by no later than 5pm, Wednesday, March 5, 2014.  This exercise is designed to test your ability to sort, filter, and manipulate data in Microsoft Excel as well as your knowledge of descriptive statistics.  As such, please remember to show your work.  Your responses should be clearly labeled, organized, and include any relevant backup analysis.

Based on the results of the exercise, I will contact you individually for a phone interview with our team.

Best,

Matthew Hobson
