Internship search question: Would this appeal to a 28 year old entrepreneur?

I just applied for an internship.  If I get it, it will be the first internship in my career.  So why at 28, when I run my own business, did I just apply to be Seth Godin’s intern?

I envision this internship to be like all internships should be.

  • A learning experience where the paycheck doesn’t matter
  • A defined project with a defined “ship-it date”
  • A gift that the intern will likely pay forward

Resume-building busywork never appealed to me.  This internship did.

NOTES:

  1. All internships at my businesses use the framework from above.
  2. Do apply for this internship, too.  You could be the missing piece.  Or it could be yours.
