<p><a href="http://art.sy/">Art.sy</a>, which is officed in the <a href="http://www.observer.com/2011/tech/inside-general-assembly-shiny-new-hub-new-yorks-startup-scene">trendy new coworking space at General Assembly</a>, is offering a three month unpaid internship with the possibility of full-time employment.</p>
<p>"I am looking for an EXTREMELY intelligent, hungry, organized, and passionate individual with beautifully efficient writing skills, and humility to boot. I want to be able to throw random complex tasks at them, knowing they will ‘just figure it out' and surprise me with the quality of their results," <a href="http://carterac.tumblr.com/post/2882086558/subject-line-intern-for-art-sys-founder-ceo">founder Carter Cleveland wrote on his blog</a>.</p>
<p>The intern will learn how to hire, manage the creation of a web app, recruit and work with engineers, and "breathe the rarefied air of the art world."</p>
<p>Additionally, Mr. Cleveland writes, the networking will be "insane." The intern will sit next to Mr. Cleveland at General Assembly and be present for meetings with investors and partners.</p>
<p>"I am so jealous that I never had an opportunity like this when I was younger," Mr. Cleveland wrote. "And I will be personally invested in making sure this person becomes a shooting star in the tech world."</p>
<p>The posting resulted in a mini-debate on Twitter. "Unpaid internships seem really disrespectful," Foursquare's Jorge Ortiz <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/jorgeortiz85/status/29304279005134849">said</a> of the opportunity. Foursquare's Harry Heymann seconded, and investor Chris Dixon, who had <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/cdixon/status/29266860960653312">tweeted</a> a link to the posting, <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/cdixon/status/29309650029510657">said</a> "I strongly prefer paying interns." Jeremy Fisher of Dinevore <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/jeremyhfisher/status/29326886618271744">pointed out</a> that unpaid internships are limited to people who can afford to work for free.</p>
<p>That wasn't the intention, Mr. Cleveland <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/carterac/status/29372175328747520">responded</a>, noting that many applications were from students in business school.</p>
<p>Besides, General Assembly will have its own barista soon, so Art.sy's intern won't even have to make coffee.</p>
