NASCAR Intern
Job Location: Concord, NC
Employment Date: Semester Long
Salary: Unpaid, but will receive a stipend if completed
Position Supervisor: Not Specified
Job Description:
· After
an applicant accepts the offer of an internship, he/she will be asked
to sign a simple statement of agreement that, among other things, sets
forth the intern's understanding that the internship is not paid and
does not guarantee or imply future employment; in addition, it includes a
covenant of confidentiality. Interns are also asked to provide us with
emergency contact information and fill out a tax form in the event they
are paid the Semester Stipend (explained below). Sometime during the
first week of their internship, we will treat interns to lunch in the
Speedway Club to welcome them on board.
· Internships
are unpaid positions. However, as a token of gratitude, all interns who
complete the semester internship and work the race events held during
the semester internship will receive a stipend.
· Some
interns will seek or be required by their schools to get academic
credit for completing an internship. While the employees will be
available to work with interns to secure the necessary authorizations
for such credit (including necessary communication with the colleges),
it will be the responsibility of each intern to arrange for the
completion of all necessary paperwork to certify course credit.
· Charlotte
