CHICAGO — Chance the Rapper is busy. Between winning Grammys, trying to save Chicago schools, showing up at school career fairs and being one of the most popular musicians in the world, he needs some help with his many side projects.
So, he's hiring an intern.
Chance tweeted Monday that he's looking for someone with experience with proposals and decks, which typically refer to business or project proposals presented to potential investors or grant-giving organizations. He asked that applicants use a creative deck format to sell themselves, and email ctrinternsubmissions@gmail.com with the goods. (Pro tip: If you're unfamiliar with the format, Google "pitch deck templates" for examples).
No word yet on how much the gig pays, but Chance tweeted that it is a "job," implying that it will not be unpaid. Hundreds of people were tweeting their resumes to the rapper Monday night.

I know "intern" has a negative connotation but the job I'm looking to fill doesn't really have an official title yet. But it is a "job".
