Say that you need to ship something - a mini donkey for instance (this is a real example). UPS, the USPS, DHL, and Fedex don’t ship donkeys. With uShip all you need to do is list that you need to ship a mini donkey, receive bids, select a winning bid, and ship that donkey where it needs to go. You don’t need to worry about your prized donkey, because you can check the shipper’s feedback and see that he has shipped all kind of livestock to all kinds of places, and every time his customers have been happy. It’s pretty simple, huh? A lot easier than bringing the donkey into your local post office only to find out that even mini donkeys are too big to ship. uShip calls themselves “the online shipping marketplace” and they back it up with their raving fans.

uShip, uIntern

Ok, that’s enough about donkeys. What about internships. uShip has a number of internships posted on their website - presumably for the Fall semester. Most Internet startups that we cover are offering internships that require significant programming knowledge, but uShip’s internships seem to be a bit broader in scope. They offer internships in Product Management, Product Design, Strategy, Reporting, & Analytics, and Strategic Marketing (MBA). The internship descriptions are well written and informative, so be sure to give them a look. You can apply for internships at uShip in Austin, TX by sending a cover letter and resume to jobs@uship.com.
