From Craigslist Philadelphia. Not clear what the job is, so I’m guessing it might be a translation agency that is just generally looking to recruit people in the Philadelphia area. That said, it’s always a good idea to use caution when applying for anything via Craigslist.

A very promising Boston-based rock band is looking to promote its music worldwide by developing a team composed of bilingual marketeers.
If you are fluent in French, Japanese, German, or Chinese and love rock music, we want to talk to you!
The right candidate will be fluent in a foreign language, be preferably from a foreign country originally, and have proficiency with computers and internet. We are especially interested in you if you have knowledge about the music scene of a foreign country, including knowledge of the social scene, web scene, etc.

Please email us to schedule an interview. Hope to hear from you.
Elizabeth Bass (Kochi 2002-2004) reports that she finally got a job (YEAH!). However, that means that she is now looking for a replacement intern at the literary agency where she works. The position is unpaid, but because it’s a small office there is a ton of opportunity to get some invaluable hands-on experience in the industry. We are looking for someone to fill the position ASAP, if possible.
We are currently accepting applications for an intern at a small literary agency.
The intern will read and recommend submissions, answer the telephone, draft emails and help in various ways around the office, including filing and restocking office supplies. Because it is a small office (myself and an assistant) the intern will have an opportunity to see close up how a literary agency works and become familiar with the book publishing industry.
QUALIFICATIONS: I am looking for someone with computer skills and some office experience to work 5-6 hours per week. (The days are flexible.) I would hope that the intern was fairly well-read and interested in books.
Please submit a short cover letter and your resume to:
Regina Ryan reginaryanbooks @ rcn . com
DURATION: 5-6 hours per week
COMPENSATION: None
