Score another one for Twitter! This is the 2nd internship that we’ve found on the site in just over a week. We started following Amybeth Hale and reading her blog almost as soon as we found her on Twitter. She’s a Sourcing Specialist and “Research Goddess” for Waggener Edstrom, which means that she uses social networking as a recruiting tool – or as she puts it, she “makes friends for a living.” It’s clearly working for her, as she got us to talk about the PR firm’s internships. She can consider it our birthday present to her (yeah, we found out that it’s her birthday today on Twitter too).

There may be no “u” in Qorvis, but there is certainly room for you. If Qorvis said something that corny, you probably wouldn’t want to work for them. Since Qorvis is a communications and public relations firm, they’re smart enough not to use slogans like the one I just came up with. Instead they rely on a nice looking Careers site and a hard to pronounce name to recruit interns.

The other kids begged their parents to take them to the zoo. Animals were exciting to them. Animals move and eat. They make weird sounds. They smell funny. Plants have none of those appeal factors. Plants don’t move, they grow. They absorb their nutrients. They’re soundless. And they smell good (most of them anyways). To most kids that spells B-O-R-I-N-G, but not to you. You realize that the zoo is an 86-minute comedy movie, while a botanical garden is 142 minutes of Academy Award winning cinematic genius. So, if you were the kid that ignored the cheap thrills of the zoo for the higher art of the botanical garden, then today’s internships will bud your interest.

Thanks for joining us for our first post on One Day, One Internship. If you’re a One Day, One Job reader, you know the drill. If you’re not, we’ll explain. Every day we feature one company and their internship opportunities. We do basic background research to give you new ideas on companies that might be fun, interesting, or exciting to work for as an intern. Our daily posts should be a jumping off point for you to continue your research and to get you in the right mindset for thinking creatively about what you want to get out of your Summer (or whenever you decide to do it) internship experience.
Whether you’re looking to add an extra commitment because of a lighter than expected course load, or trying to get your parents off your back about what you’re doing this Summer, Bliss offers two great internship opportunities that will provide a flexible schedule, excellent learning opportunities, and a really fun work environment. Why do we think they’ll have a fun work environment? Because “countless hours of spa-side tension-nixing and skin-fixing are the basis of Bliss.” Beyond that, they have amazing copywriting. Whether it’s their product descriptions or their job postings, Bliss uses its way with words to woo you. We think that kind of attention to detail has to spill over into the workplace.
