So as a college student I have been applying to a lot of summer internships this past week. While I know that any kind of summer work is basically monkey work (work you can train a monkey to do), I've been trying to find something that is at least a little bit interesting. So while I know it's kind of a long shot, does any one know any good ways I could maybe break into the sports card industry?
I'm a junior in college who lives in the Chicago area and is studying history and journalism. I figure that I might as well try to something I enjoy for the summer. I live in I love collecting so why not see if I can get anything out of it? I applied for an internship at Upper Deck but it seemed like none of the grading companies had anything open. Beckett had something for a freelance writer but I don't think that could really get me through the summer. I really don't care what it is I do, like I said I applied at Upper Deck and looked at the grading companies so if I really got in anywhere in the hobby I would be happy. I would even be happy working at a card store.
I know FCB has the most knowledgeable member on the web so if anyone has any leads or advice it would be greatly appreciated. I apologize if this comes of as desperate in anyway but I'm not begging for a job. Just looking for leads and advice really, but if you want to offer me something I won't stop you
