This is an outstanding opportunity for a hard working, smart, marketing student. I recently visited with the owner of this company and was very impressed with their operation and their plans to bring on an intern. This is full-time (40 hours) paid during the summer and about 10 hours per week in the fall. The student will work at the place of business in South Dartmouth (beautiful spot) and will be supervised by porfessions in the field. This is a successful local marine related business.
