ON3P Needs an Intern

18 year age (ideally 21)

Between 15-40 hours a week, depending on skill level and available time.

Tasks will include:
Cutting Fiberglass
Cutting Tipspacers
Cutting VDS
Cutting Topsheets
Filling Epoxy Cups
Waxing Skis
Scraping Skis
Shrink Wrap Skis
Box skis
Shipping labels
Cut Stickers
Clean Shop


Start ASAP. Would last as late as November, but would be willing to have someone through end of summer if they are a student. Compensation will probably be in the form of skis, it will depend on the amount you can work. If you want to see what a career in the ski industry is like, or if you just have an interest in what goes into making a pair of skis, or even if you just want an awesome job reference to put on your resume, this is a sweet opportunity.

Submit your resume, including availability (weekly and your summer schedule) to Info@on3pskis.com

If you message me, cant promise I'll get back to you on NS, email is the best way to get in touch and ask questions.

given the job market for engineers in portland, I legitimately may apply for this position.

(don't worry about the conflict of interest)

I'd be all over this if it was paid (so I could move down to Portland) and if blogging, filming, and editing was part of the job description. Just a proposal for you...

Unfortunately, OSHA rules mean that you do have to be over 18 to operate power tools in a work environment.

Few questions I should address in here I suppose. We cant let you live at the factory (it sucks, trust me, I did it for 6 months), or camp outside (although wow, some of you guys really want this).

There will be compensation, depends on what you can commit to in terms of hours, but we are a ski factory, and we do make... well, skis.

It is actually OUR insurance, not OSHA, that prevents us from having anyone working in here under 18.

the job market for engineers sucks right now. I graduated in december and am working at an internship that had 239 applicants for 2 positions. And i still dont have anything remotely lined up when this ends. its retardedly competetive right now, and there are few entry level positions opening up.
