ConnectLAX.com is a lacrosse start-up based in NYC. We are match.com for high school recruits and college coaches. We are passionate about helping players realize their dream of playing college lacrosse and breaking down the barriers in lacrosse recruiting.

Our internship program trains you to use relevant marketing tools [Instagram, Wordpress, Final Cut Pro, Buffer (Twitter), Feedly, Followerwonk, Mailchimp] to maximize your reach and track how your audience receives your content. This is an analytics-based, practical approach to digital and social media marketing.

As a start-up, we only want capable, motivated and entrepreneurial interns that can problem solve and leverage data to build confidence in their abilities and have video editing experience (Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premier, Adobe After Effects, iMovie all acceptable).

• You will learn to source, capture, publish and share news, understanding these represent four legs of a stool and each must be successfully executed to be heard in today's crowded media environment.
• Career development is an important component of this internship and we try to tailor your workflow to match your post-collegiate goals.
• Our expectation is that you will develop a skill set and confidence that allows you to stand apart in interviews and hit the ground running. Please do not apply if this is not important to you.
• Being competitive is a positive. Previous interns have found full-time employment within media, sports agencies and entertainment, including San Francisco Giants.

In summary, the program will teach you how to create, execute and most importantly, track content marketing campaigns. With an understanding of data, you will be confident in proposing new ideas because you can back them up and evaluate their success. In addition, you will learn how to "out-blog" bloggers, which is effectively what the media outlets of today do.

The position is paid, remote and flexible to your schedule. Class credit is available. You will need to travel to NYC for a two-day training session in May 24th - 25th with a group Mets game on the 25th.

In-person meetings June 6th, June 22nd, July 11th, August 1st in NYC.

Travel stipend provided. Opportunities for travel to lacrosse tournaments exist, most are located in the tri-state/DC/Baltimore area.

• Undergrads only
• Experience in video editing (Final Cut Pro X, Adobe Premier, Adobe After Effects of iMovie, all acceptable)
• Experience in social media
• And a love for the game of lacrosse (do not have to play the sport)
