Hi Food52! Let me know if you got my resume! I'm ready to start whenever you are!

We did, and thank you! We've been flooded with emails from excellent candidates and are happily making our way through reading everyone's notes and resumes. A great and generous group of people.

This would be so awesome - if only childcare were offered! :) I'll keep my eye out and let you know if I meet anyone in my everyday nyc encounters, though. And, once my child starts school next year I'll be totally available (haha!)

Oh, to be an independently wealthy, freebird kind of gal who lives in Brooklyn! What a great (and fun) opportunity.

Oh this sounds right up my alley (does UES count as close enough to Brooklyn?) except 30 hours a week is a lot on top of my full time job. I hope you find someone well qualified!

Speaking of hanging out, I'm planning a potluck for the SF Bay Area . . . will be in touch soon with those of you who contacted me last month, but would love anyone else who's joined since then, or is hearing about this for the first time, to contact me via "Send Me A Message" in my Profile. ;o)

In all seriousness (rare for me) I did attend the first Foodbuzz Festival which turned out to be like Sundance for food bloggers. I somehow captured Ryan Adams on my Flip video although we never met through the entire event. Found out afterwards. But I did meet a lot of really nice people there. Hell, I travel I meet people, I make friends. Sometimes I get to cook for them.

How about 6 out of 7??
Or, how close to Brooklyn? I'm just a click away!!
I already have two non-paying food related jobs--my husband actually says it costs him more for me to work!--so another would be right down my alley!
Love the site...and if you need any help from SW VA let me know!

Flexible, Foodie, Tweeter, Facebooker, Designer & Writer......Right here.
I am a born and bred New Yorker and not scared to share a good honest opinion. Always. Only thing is we live in SoCal now. Can we get creative to figure out if I could be right for the job?? This is a great opportunity. Perhaps I could be your west coast gal?
I love fabulous new opportunities and you guys have an excellent plan here. Thoughts?

So wished I was near Brooklyn, it would be fun. But I love your site and the photo support is great.

Pay no attention to the nay-sayers! This is a chance of a life time.

I can handle the hours part but I don't live in Brooklyn. I don't live anywhere really, but I do move around a bit and blog from far off locations like Chicago and Monterey and Staten Island. But I don't Twitter. That's part of my charm. I take notes in long hand too. My motto is speak softly but travel with a big, sharp knife. And a Flip camera.

Ack -- that was actually me saying that. I was signed in as Sarah to fix a photo!

You may wish to review the Fair Labor Standards Act and applicable state corollaries. You don't want to violate minimum wage laws.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. It is an internship -- we're looking for someone who will see it as an opportunity. Also, we're really not sure how many hours it will take but we didn't want to underestimate.

Actually, it's against the law to use unpaid interns in California, except in extraordinary circumstances, and then only if you jump through a bunch of hoops (typically, meeting certain requirements and implementing certain practices and conditions related to the services) . . . . I don't know about NY, but I do know that labor laws everywhere have gotten really tough. Your corporate counsel should be able to fill you in on this, and how to get around it. I'm a lawyer too but this is not legal advice . . . just chiming in that you need to consult someone qualified in this subject area, in your jurisdiction. Good luck! ;o)

I feel like if it's just considered a volunteer position it shouldn't be an issue! I think it's a fantastic opportunity!

That's the way it should be, but the laws are really tough and are getting more difficult all the time. I agree it's a fantastic opportunity. I'd grab it in a nanosecond if I weren't 2900 miles away, with clients to whom I've made commitments!

For real? 30 hours a week and no pay?

Awww, if I hadn't already given my entire 2009 to the Brooklyn Food Coalition for free I would definitely be jumping on this! Check on all qualifications. Phooey. If you need someone for just 5 hours a week I'm yours ;)
