Hey
Rico here, CEO @Source Find Asia.
Our little startup is getting so mature these days, it's recruiting international interns!
We're looking for 1 or 2 ambitious and open minded, hustlers to work part or full-time. Mainly at our office in Guangzhou, China for 2 - 3 months & (potentially) 1 month in Chiang Mai, Thailand - this summer.
For those candidates out of school, there will be the possibility of a long-term position at the end of the internship.
So Who Are We?
Source Find Asia is a manufacturing consulting startup based in Southern China.
My business partner ChinaMike and I started the company out of our apartment, while I was teaching English part-time in China.
In the 3+ years since, we've graduated to an office downtown, 5 employees (2 full-time, 1 part-time locals & 2 part-time online), managing orders worth 6 & 7 figures (USD) and a dynamic portfolio of products we've made.
We develop and implement time tested strategies tailored to a client's supply chain.
Whether it’s research and insight into new markets, purchasing and manufacturing solutions, product development, or entry into dynamic Asian markets, Source Find Asia provides a host of consulting services that fit their physical product business.
On top of our “critically acclaimed” Source Find Asia YouTube Channel :P we host a fun and informative podcast on international business, lifestyle, crowdfunding and manufacturing called the Made in China Podcast.
What Can You Expect?
The cultural and business experience of a lifetime working in our manufacturing consulting startup based in Southern China.
Not only will you get to create & execute marketing strategies targeting an international audience & learn how actual products that the world uses are made, but you'll also have the chance to make connections with titans within the IoT, tech and manufacturing space (through our network) and travel around Southern China (and potentially Northern) visiting manufacturers.
You'll see how to literally take a rough concept/drawing and bring it to reality through manufacturing.
PLUS you'll work side by side with me and we all know that’s the real reason you're applying :)
