What it means to be an intern for SbM: Interns who work with us are very highly appreciated; the future of this label is dependent on them, and we want to show our gratitude to those who invest their time to make this possible for all of us. Depending on your job, ability, and dedication to your work, suitable interns will be offered full employment with fair, regular wages, plus a bonus at the first reasonable point in time, once permanent positions become available IF POSSIBLE. We are looking to hire as many of our interns as permanent staff as we possibly can, but unfortunately at this time, it is impossible to know how many positions we can provide. Even if you do not get a permanent place with us, you may still benefit from the experience - we would be happy to to be reference to your possible future employers, provide you with free merchandise, tickets, connections, a possible cash reimbursement of time spent, etc. If we become a large name, these benefits may become VERY valuable. At this time, much of the work may be done from home at your leisure, when possible, however, it is expected that you complete your assignments and duty within a reasonable amount of time if you are not given a specific due date. All musicians and rappers and potential staff are welcome to apply and will be considered. Inquiries can be sent to this page directly, to [email protected] or call/text Shea Alexanderson (Squishy) at 360.610.0649. Please feel free to ask for any additional information. All constructive criticism, suggestions, and ideas are greatly appreciated. SERIOUS APPLICANTS ONLY, PLEASE, WE ARE NOT TRYING TO WASTE ANYONE'S TIME, PLEASE DO NOT WASTE OURS! Thanks, guys :) I look forward to hearing from anyone who is interested in this business opportunity!
