We hope you started interning in middle school. Deserving applicants should send a resume, cover letter, and recommendation from every continent to [email protected].


Dear Mr. Dayle,

My resume and cover letter are attached. This job is my last chance. They’ve cut my power, and I’ve finished my last handful of stale cheerios. Vultures are circling above my apartment. I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely,
Alan Smithee

Dear Mr. Smithee,

We regret to inform you that we lost your resume during last night’s “King of Tokyo” game. We could print another copy, but the printer’s looking pretty low on toner. We wish you the best of luck pursuing other opportunities.

Sincerely,
Dennard Dayle
