This week Marny Smith, NY Creative Interns Community Manager and I taught our Skillshare Class, “Land An Internship or Job Using Social Media,” for the third time. Thanks to the fantastic attendees who asked great questions and made the class fun. Special thanks to New Work City University for hosting us in their office.
Driven entirely by member participation, NWCU is a curated collection of classes, workshops, Meetup groups, and hackathons, all sharing one core common goal: help existing and aspiring independents build, learn, and share with one another, so more people can lead better, happier lives working for themselves.
Be sure to Like NWCU on Facebook, follow them at @NWCUni and see all their classes on the blog.
Below is the presentation along with our giant list of resources for your internship and job hunts.
