We are expanding our ecommerce presence and I would greatly appreciate someone who could help with that strategy- google search
words and streamlining our drop ship programs. I would also love assistance with sourcing Chinese vendors- anyone who speaks
Mandarin would be great!
Need travel to York, PA, as needed.
One avenue we have not even begun to develop is that of ‘social media’. Personally, I am active on Linked In and a few African news
sites, but the Facebooks, Twitters, InstaGrams, MySpaces and so on, I pay absolutely no attention to. Someone with a commercial
sensibility, an interest in International Trade and proficient with Facebook, Twitter and Instagram would positively be a strong
candidate, and most probably get the position.
My Marketing Manager, Barb Harman, will work closely with the
intern so as to ensure optimal results. Realizing, of course, that ‘social media’ creation can be accomplished from virtually anywhere,
I feel that a minimum of 1-2 days per week here in the office, working with Barb and/or myself, would add an immersive effect.
Project area of focus (such as marketing, research, coding, social media, training, etc.): Operations and administration; recruiting,
management and ongoing relationship building with the ETS global test center network.
Project objective: Assist with communications related to the recruiting, on-boarding and management of test centers around the
2
world.
Project goal: Successfully process test center applications within 60 days. Assist with communications between prospective test
centers and ETS, assist with processing applications, requesting and processing information and resolving issues with in-process
applications, complete the application process.
What the outcome looks like when complete: Successfully processed test centers applications, completed within 60 days of initial
application submission. Test centers register for administration dates so they are ready to administer ETS assessments.
Intern requirements (strengths, skills, mode of work): Strong communication skills with bi-lingual ability (French, German, Spanish,
Portuguese, Hindi), strong process orientation, attention to detail, proactive follow up with several internal and external
stakeholders.

Overall Purpose of the Role – 2 interns
The role of the college intern is to provide study and research opportunities for students interested in interacting with and learning about a
start up community that is working in a globalized setting. Conducting research on key country and regional healthcare facilities around the
world will enhance the candidates’ knowledge about varying levels of quality, credentialing, and transparency within every healthcare
system around the world. The intern will actively research public, private and military hospitals around the world as well as the systems
within which they operate by focusing on select countries in every continent.
I will have a new website ready in July and I'd like for us to post articles on aspects of healthcare in different countries. I will need
someone to do a write up on healthcare in a variety of countries so if someone is willing to research unique aspects of healthcare in
Bangladesh or Bolivia or Bulgaria, sure! I figure posting one country per week will allow us to go through the entire world in about 4
years.

or plastic film under or wrap around food portion(s) and stack the portions for further packaging. Fully automatic (no operators

potential new customers/agencies in the market space.
