It is with great excitement that OverTheCap.com is rapidly growing. I’ve spoken about this on my podcast a few times, but want to officially announce that I am looking for a few interns to do some work for OTC.
What I am primarily looking for are people that have a passion for the National Football League (NFL) and in particular the contractual side of the league. Having general knowledge of the NFL salary cap, Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and player contract terminology is certainly beneficial. Basic knowledge of Excel would be required as would a willingness to do some data entry.
The positions are open to anyone who can invest their time in OTC regardless of college or professional background. If you are not in a sports law program or sports management, don’t worry and feel free to apply. Since this internship is an unpaid position, there is no specific time requirement, but hopefully you can spend enough time so that you are learning a bit more about this aspect of the NFL which can hopefully help in your career down the line.
As I discussed on the podcast we have a few roles that will be open and I am always open to new ideas either for the site or as guest posting on various topics. Some positions might require some writing online but not all need to do that especially if someone is uncomfortable writing but great at doing backend football analytics and such.
Below are some of the roles I would like to add. Please note, you can take on multiple roles:
OverTheCap.com is followed by most NFL teams and NFL agents and have more than a few people in some ways related to OTC working in some capacity in the sport. As an intern, you will gain invaluable exposure along with the experience and I believe that some of the projects you work on will help you gain some of the insights you may need to stand out in an interview in the future. I’ll also be more than happy to write any letters of recommendation or connect with a potential future employer to let them know about some of the work you have done at OTC.
Please send your resume to jason@overthecap.com as well as what positions you might be open to working on. Feel free to send any additional writing pieces you have previously done. Cover letters are always helpful and if you already applied based on the podcast and want to re-submit please do so but it is not required. Please put “OTC Intern” as the subject line. I will try to personally write back to every applicant, but can’t guarantee it. Those selected for the second round will either be given a small project to work on or asked to answer a small questionnaire just to test general knowledge needed for the position. There is a link to download a pdf of this post that you can keep for your records or share with others who may be interested.
As always thanks for the continued support.
Sincerely,
Jason Fitzgerald
