AS SEEN ONSHARK TANK!

Job Overview:

Are you an international student looking to gain exposure in the field of marketing? Have you seen us on Shark Tank and want to be part of the next best start up?

Storage Scholars is a quickly growing company that values both personal and professional growth for our entire team. If you thrive in fast-paced environments with a “do what it takes” philosophy, this is the place for you.

Our business, by nature of our core service offering, particularly serves international students at each university we operate at. In order to successfully meet the needs of this market, we need your help.

We take smart, hard-working people, and give them the hard and soft skills needed to succeed in the business world. What does that mean? We don't have a boring skills test you need to pass during your interview. This isn't finance recruitment or case prep. We look for people who fit our expanding company culture and are ready to learn.

So, what does it take to be a Storage Scholar?

Job Requirements:

• freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior at your university pursuing an undergraduate degree – all majors welcome to apply
• Proficiency in at least one language besides English
• an intense work ethic – we work until the job is done
• a growth mindset – we want you to grow with the company
• excellent problem solving skills – you must be able to think outside the box, and on your feet
• exceptional communication skills – you interact with us, your customers, and your campus team constantly
• a desire to learn – this role embodies “on-the-job” learning
• high personal standards – everything we do is elite, and we expect your work to support that
• the ability to hear and implement constructive feedback – on this team, we teach each other every single day
• a high level of connectedness within your college campus – you are the boots on the ground marketing, and your campus success relies primarily on you
• an outgoing personality – you will be marketing to lots of strangers!
• a jump right in, can-do attitude – “I can't” is not in our team vocabulary

Job Responsibilities:

The internship program centers around 4 weeks of highly specialized training on a learning management system. You will work through weekly modules that instruct you on all aspects of our marketing, from back-end operations to client-facing interactions. Through this, you will gain exposure to high-level information as well as specific, complex processes. The LMS modules are manageable, but fast-paced: you must be able to absorb information quickly and efficiently to be successful. You must also demonstrate a strong personal responsibility for your learning. This isn't school. There are no grades to measure your dedication, just the success of the business.

As you go through the training program, you will take on tasks outside of the modules. You will network with students and parents, engage in tabling efforts on campus, speak to organizations and social groups, and more. You will also manage social media pages for your university's operations. Through these activities, you will develop the ability to efficiently and effectively communicate the value proposition of our service while successfully closing sales. Each week, you and your executive team lead will meet to discuss your training and evaluate your performance based on sales metrics. These metrics will be tracked throughout the sales period on your campus. At Storage Scholars, we set goals, and then we crush them. We have full faith that your performance will be no different in this regard.

Our best marketing interns will receive return offers to expand their skill set with client interactions. These students will be given the opportunity to manage client relationships during the move season. This will teach you invaluable customer service and relationship management skills.

Here at Storage Scholars, we push you to success, never to defeat. Here you will shadow the life of an entrepreneur with the support of executive professionals who have walked in your shoes. In the role, you will have opportunities to connect with the highest tier of professionals (yes, the elusive C-suite). We've all done some or all of your role at some point, so we're here to guide you and help you. Plus, it's not our first rodeo. We've watched International Marketing Manager after International Marketing Manager come into this role at the same place you are and emerge with success they did not even know was possible. We are so excited for you to continue that track record of success.

So, are you ready to be our next International Marketing Intern?
