Rs. 100,000 Internship Challenge.
I have been toying with an idea for the last couple of years to have a ‘meaningful’ internship in our company. My meaningful I imply – worthy of learning, challenging, tough, the most intense / learning 8 weeks you will ever spend anywhere.
The no-frills – eat, sleep, drink and talk technology kind of an internship… but (yes there is a but)
… it has to be fun!!!
Well, I really did not have any kick-ass ideas, until a few weeks back. Now I am preparing to have something like a Rs. 100,000 Internship challenge.
Twelve students (1st or 2nd year) would be participating in the Internship challenge, (3 teams of four people each).
They would get their usual stipends, etc. but to make it worth while, I’d like to put a financial incentive for the team that wins – Rs. 100,000 (to be divided equally amongst the member of the team).
2nd and 4rd place will get some form of a reward as well.
I now just need to make sure that this internship program sees the light of day.
I'm an Internet addict - no other way to describe me. CEO of a Web Hosting & Datacenter, Entrepreneur, Motivator-Mentor, Internet Marketer, Digital Thinker and with that comes digital tinkering. Love life! Engineer by education. Passionate about making a living on the Internet and all that it has to offer. Blunt and in your face. Practical joker. Love books, music (all types of music, but especially vintage jazz), 4x4, movies, humor, gourmet food, cigars, fine wine and martinis! :)
This is so cool and healthy

I’ve been looking for a decent aggregator device for quite awhile. i also bought some and none of them seemed to work, can you suggest one? and how much did it cost? thanks..
@Khan – I am not sure what you mean by how i started this site – the blog has been up for years now… unless you are referring to something else, perhaps you can skip and fast-forward to waht you want to say.
