Requirements
Jonny Stax Presents is interested in working with individuals who are pleasant and committed to excellence. We do not assume expertise is the defining factor of a successful individual as much as the wisdom to know what one does not know, the tenacity to figure it out, and the ability to communicate new learning to others. Interns do not have to be students, but could be individuals seeking new learning opportunities.To apply for an internship, email Anne Wagner, Production Manager, at greenroom@scootyjojo.com. Please include a cover letter explaining your experience, areas of interest, what term(s) you are interested in interning with the company, and your fit with the company.
