Hi Shahan,

Great to hear from you. The successful candidate for the Intern Analyst position will be key in finding contacts to whom we will pitch our product. Rather than cold-calling, this will involve using various online avenues (alumni, LinkedIn etc.) to identify prospects and work out exactly how PathMotion can help optimise their employer brand. It will then involve making customised sales presentations for prospects. The intern will also have scope to generate leads in any way they see fit, so being creative will be key!

Personally, I’ve also found that as an intern at PathMotion there is huge scope to branch out and get involved in what interests you. Everyone here wants to get to know you and understand what you want to get out of your internship, and the co-founders work hard to make sure you have every opportunity to develop yourself and gain hands-on experience. Working in a start-up means that the level of responsibility you have is pretty high from day one.

Hope this helps!

Fergus
