Sisyphus Supply: Campus Internship - Lift 20kg, 12-Hour Shifts, Boulder Rotation
**Sisyphus Supply, Inc. - Campus Internship Announcement**
Sisyphus Supply seeks ambitious B.Tech, BBA, BCA and B.Com (Hons) students for a three-month internship. Compensation is ₹20,000 per month, offered in the same spirit in which Sisyphus pushes his boulder.
**Physical requirements:**
- Ability to lift 20 kg and remain on your feet for 10-12 hour shifts in a fast-paced environment
- Willingness to interpret "internship" as "warehouse rotation with a learning outcome attached"
- Enthusiasm for explaining to your placement cell why a computer science degree prepares you for a warehouse rotation
- Male students preferred; other candidates are encouraged to apply to the second, unadvertised listing that does not exist
**About the work:**
- The 20 kg must be lifted repeatedly, in the Sisyphus tradition, up a slight incline
- The incline resets at the end of every shift
- Questions about the relationship between the curriculum and the loading dock will be routed to HR, which will not answer them
- Interns who complete the program will be considered for the same internship next year
Sisyphus Supply is an equal-opportunity employer. We do not believe in gravity exceptions.
