Re: internships 07

I thought there IS a magical job that pays you 150k in the 1st yr with good 9-5 hours and hot chicks working with you....and now you are just saying that you made a mistake?:mad1:

btw, 3040*12=$36480, thats less than the cba offer imo, unless you also take super into consideration. (does that mean cba doesnt pay super on top of that 37.5k?)

haha. you did that with your claims of $270 a month apartments in edgecliff. silly stas. $3000 a month is still good given the perks of the job.
it's more than $3000 a month though. There's also a S$44 = AU$33 per day (including weekends) allowance given in cash (i.e. it's tax free). That adds up to an extra $1,000/month.

Which brings the total up to $4140/month + 10.3% super.

Re: internships 07

Re: internships 07

wooohooo. got an offer today to work until departure to singapore from the non-traditional advertising agency that handles the Xbox account, as well as some other cool brands.

They offered $500, as detailed in their job ad. So, I was all like "P&G are paying me $1k/week, and other companies would likely give me higher offers" which is unlikely as people starting out in advertising work for free most of the time, since it's such a selective industry that is hard to penetrate (lol..penetrate).

Got an email back from the guy offering $750/week :p That's so sexy. $39,000p.a. equiv. That's even higher than cumbank

Re: internships 07

So for you guys who applied last year do you think I will be able to take advantage of written referrals (can call to confirm etc) in my application process for summer internships somehow?

Re: internships 07

generally, most employers only actually read your written referrals at your final interviews. the main exception would be if the referral is referenced in your cover letter or somewhere prominent. For example, I would make note that I have attached a reference from one of the world's most innovative marketers.

Robert Lauterborn (was lucky to have been taught by him when I was on exchange). He developed the 4Cs (the consumer-centric 4P variant) and many other things in integrated marketing communications.

Mine has been awesome, have learnt a crapload and have developed personally - having to live away from home. Have been involved in asset estimations worth US$800 billion dollars and am now going away for an all expenses paid conference for 3 days.

Only bad thing is living out of a suitcase.
