    Default Internship Opportunities?

    Hey everyone, I am new to L4P and the car world because I have just become a licensed driver a couple months ago. However, I am extremely passionate about cars and the business surround them. I know that a lot of people on the forum, besides being car enthusiasts, are successful in various fields of business. I am about to finish my junior year of high school right outside of NYC and I was wondering if anyone here would be interested in accepting me as an intern for you. I am a very capable and bright student; I scored a 2200 on my sats and am in the top 15% of my class. I do not really know what I want to do with my life but I know I want real world experience with people that know what success is and can pass some of the knowledge down to me. I am willing to do anything from wash cars and run errands, to work with photography or computers. Any opportunity is greatly appreciated and I am available almost all days during the summer starting at the end of June. Thank you for taking the time to read my thread!!!

    I applaud the ambition, but don't expect anybody to take you seriously yet. Stick around for awhile first.

    thats the point of the internship. I am not experienced at all, but I am eager to learn and want to learn from somebody that knows what they are doing

    I didn't mean don't expect anybody to take you seriously because you don't have any experience, but thank you for reminding me what an internship is. I meant don't expect to join a message board, make 1 resume-esque post, and have opportunities thrown at you.

    When I said stick around for awhile, I was implying you should post more and become more involved with the community here if you want somebody to give you a chance.

    Yeah I agree, you can't just come on here posting and expect people to hire you. To be honest you would have better luck walking around and soliciting yourself in your home area.

    First, Kenny is a weird name for a girl, so that is a strike against you. Second, how can I evaluate you as an intern with that gibberish you posted? Pertinent facts are: how hot are you, what is your bust size, and do you think you would fit under my desk?

    She is lying: everyone knows the Terms of Service stipulate that you have to be 18 to be a member on here.

    Wait until you're 18, then stick around for a while and then ask about internships.
