What's the Jump Externship?

This 4-month position offers competitive pay and benefits, active hands-on coaching, and a strong and supportive work culture. You'll work on a team full-time alongside experienced Jumpsters on high impact client projects covering a range of disciplines:

Needfinding
Find out what keeps people up at night. Go into their homes and learn about their lives firsthand. Extract the universal experiences, explore the deeper meaning, and develop compelling insights and frameworks that give our clients a new, unique way to look at their world.

Design
Create products and services that connect with ordinary folks. Develop new business models and families of products to help our clients leverage the rich insights gained from Needfinding.

Business Strategy
Plan for the big picture. Structure families of offerings to set clients up for sustainable success. Create roadmaps that help them grow their business in the short and long term.

Client Relationships
Build trust. Shepherd clients through the process. Facilitate meetings and let them hear your thoughts and insights. Help them get the most out of their relationship with Jump.

The Jump Externship has been key to our growth. Externships entail the possibility of a full-time hire. Over the years, this program has been the primary vehicle for bringing on the full-time Jumpsters that are here today. It gives folks a chance to really experience and understand what it's like to be a part of the Jump Team - and make measurable impacts on our projects and culture.

See yourself at Jump
  Are you a designer who reads Standard & Poors? An anthropologist who blogs about the latest tech gadgets? An MBA with a psychology background? Jump may be just what you're looking for. At Jump, we don't just look for multi-disciplinary teams, we look for multi-disciplinary people. Our work is a hybrid of three disciplines: Social Research, Product Design and Business Strategy. We look for depth of experience in one of these, demonstrated multi-disciplinary skills in another, and a strong interest in all three.
