Summer Internship Opportunities

Ever fancied being a club reporter or dance music journalist in Ibiza? Well, we're looking for an intern (or two) to work for Ibiza Spotlight in Ibiza – Summer 2012. See details below:

Role

Internship at Ibiza Spotlight for the summer, encompassing all elements of working in and supporting the business, but mainly with regard to clubbing and nightlife. Task to include:

1. Researching, writing clubbing/nightlife content.

2. Reviewing music we get sent.

3. Attending club nights and producing clubbing reviews, where possible taking photos to support.

4. Interviewing Djs, promoters and island people for features.

5. Various administrative tasks to support content – sourcing photos/videos, fact checking, transcribing.

6. Managing and updating social media networks.

7. Managing and updating the Ibiza party calendar.

8. Liaising with agents, clubs, promoters, PR agencies and DJ management to organise content

9. All other sorts of interestingly wonderful things!

10. Oh, how could we forget - making cups of tea!! (Swop for cocktails and ice creams on hot days!)

Perks/Benefits

1. Free guestlist/passes for clubs – within reason, we'll sort you out!

2. Exposure – have your work published on Ibiza's biggest site. A few million people will see the fruits of your labour over the summer.

3. Opportunity – first steps to working in Ibiza or journalism or the music business.

4. Money – whilst most internships just offer expenses for travel and lunch, we appreciate we're not just a bus ride away. So we will offer increased expenses to assist towards rent/living costs. Full details will be discussed with potential candidates. Don't expect much!

5. Office Space – feel free to use our office and high speed broadband whenever you want.

6. The summer of your life – things will never be the same again.....!!

What we're looking for

1. The main essential skill/experience is that we need someone who is comfortable using computers, facebook, twitter, etc. Basically someone that isn't going to need their hand held using word or the internet!

2. A good standard of English goes without saying.

3. Knowledge of Ibiza, dance music culture, etc would be a distinct advantage. You're unlikely to get the position if you don't know the difference between David Guetta and Sven Vath.

4. We need someone that can be creative, be witty, be serious, challenge the status quo, find solutions to whatever problems they're faced with.

5. This is no 9 to 5 job but we need someone to last the distance, to be flexible to meet deadlines quickly and generally get the job done at all costs. Then we party!

6. Don't apply if you're a mumbling wimp. You're going to be in contact with people every day and need to be able to get along with all shapes and sizes and be able to assert yourself, whether it be a guestlist queue, a grumpy DJ or a busy editor!

7. Beyond that there are no rules and no ideal candidate, it's up to you to catch our attention. You may be a Pulitzer Prize winner in the making, but if you don't show us that, we can't pick you.

8. Finally, leave your prejudices at home. We all have our tastes but a trance fan who doesn't get Cocoon is as equally unwanted as a techno snob that doesn't get why 5000 go to Cream every week. In other words, be up for anything!

Conditions

1. Must be availble to work in Ibiza from June to September. For outstanding candidates, exceptions may be made. Earlier and later start dates may also be possible.

2. You must arrange your own flights and accommodation.

3. You must have your own laptop. IT equipment will be available but a laptop is compulsory.

4. You must be prepared to spend time working in our main office in San Antonio.

5. You will be expected to work 20-30 hours a week, which doesn't include the time you spend out clubbing! This will be a flexible schedule.

6. If you aren't the first choice we may still be able to offer you a position, but we won't be able to offer expenses.

How to Apply

1. No covering letter or email is required.

2. Don't send generic CVs as if you were applying for a job in a call centre or shop. Instead provide a mini-profile/CV of who you are, your last 2 or 3 jobs, any qualifications you think are worth mentioning and a short summary of what you're doing right now that means you'll be able to take this role (e.g. Tell us if you're unemployed, at uni, between jobs or going to be in Ibiza anyway)

3. Provide a 50-100 word paragraph on why you think you'd be good for the job and why you want it. Feel free to tell us about your favourite music, Djs, clubs, etc.

4. Include a recent photo of yourself.

5. Present all of the above in whatever order or format you like but it should all fit on one page of A4. Anything more than one page won't be considered.

6. All the above should be sent to clubbing@ibiza-spotlight.com with the subject title "SUMMER INTERN 2012"

7. The closing date for receipt of applications is March 1st.

8. During March we will decide on various shortlists with a view to possible email and phone interviews.

9. We will inform the successful candidate(s) by 1st April.

Questions / More Info

We think we're being fairly clear about everything here, but if you really aren't sure about something and need clarification. Email clubbing@ibiza-spotlight.com with the subject title 'INTERN QUESTION'.

Please note that we'll only be replying to valid and pertinent questions. If you want to know where to get some cheap worker's accommodation or how much you'll get for expenses or if your mate can have a space pass as well, then don't expect a reply.

Good luck and DO IT!!
