Young Women Energized is an annual event hosted by the Women's Energy Network in the fall of each year. Its purpose is to introduce high school aged girls to careers in the energy industry in an effort to encourage them to consider career options in this field. Beginning in 2011, WEN is pleased to offer an internship for a female high school student (sophomore or junior grade level) in the Greater Houston area. The intern's primary responsibility would be the marketing and visibility of WEN's annual YWE event through social media. This position will provide the selected intern with valuable resume building skills through the introduction of marketing strategies, networking within a professional, career-oriented organization for women, career guidance and the promotion of college education.
A link to the application is here. The application due date is February 25, 2011. The intern(s) would be selected by mid-March. It is an unpaid internship. Any questions regarding WEN, YWE, the application or the internship itself can be directed to womenenergynetwork2011@gmail.
