<p>Felix Delgado really wants to be an intern at <a href="http://seatgeek.com/">SeatGeek</a>, and why not? The General Assembly graduate is crushing it, having recently <a title="SeatGeek Partners With Yahoo, Eclipses Better Funded Competition" href="http://www.betabeat.com/2011/08/23/seatgeek-partners-with-yahoo-eclipses-better-funded-competition/">signed a big partnership with Yahoo Sports</a> and outpacing their older, better funded rivals.</p>
<p>Assuming that it would be a crowded field, Mr. Delgado crafted a custom ticket stub. The front is a custom message to the founders with a QR code linking back to a <a href="http://felixdelgado.com/seatgeek/">FAQ page on Mr. Delgado's website</a>, wherein he asks (and answers!) questions about why he is perfect for the position at SeatGeek. The back is his resume.</p>
<p>"Over achiever of the year," <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/kessler/status/112273359911387138/photo/1">tweeted out</a> SeatGeek's Ben Kessler.<!--more--></p>
<p>The FAQ in all it's glory:</p>
<blockquote>
<h2><strong>Are you interested in Marketing?</strong></h2>
<p>Interested? No. I love Marketing. The thought of marketing a product that customers will enjoy is exciting and inspiring.</p>
<h2><strong>Are you eager to learn more about Marketing?</strong></h2>
<p>Yes, I am very eager to learn more about Marketing. My goal is to master it. I feel an internship at SeatGeek will set me on the path to achieve that goal.</p>
<h2><strong>Are you interested in web startups?</strong></h2>
<p>I eat and breathe startups. I have a two-year subscription to Inc. and visit Techcrunch, Mashable, Techmeme, and Hackernews about five times a day.</p>
<h2><strong>Tell me something about yourself.</strong></h2>
<p>That is not a question.</p>
<h2><strong>OK… What can you tell me about yourself?</strong></h2>
<p>I love Marketing, technology, baseball, and the internet-not necessarily in that order. I recently began helping two small businesses with their marketing strategies. One of the businesses is a balloon décor company and the other is a sound production company. I am hoping that I can work with SeatGeek to expand my marketing skills, while also assisting them in becoming a nationally recognized brand.</p></blockquote>
