CourseHorse

Content Operations Intern

About Us:

Based in downtown NYC, CourseHorse is the first marketplace that helps people discover & enroll in trusted local classes, ranging from casual programs like cooking & art, to professional courses like finance and programming. We believe that learning is the single greatest way to positively impact individuals & our society, which makes our goal simple: to make lifelong learning easier.

We've just raised an additional round of capital in order to attach rocket-boosters to this Horse, and we're seeking passionate, talented team members to get in on the ground floor & help steer us to the stars. 

Job Description:

Currently, CourseHorse aggregates 75,000 classes per month from over 1,500 different class providers.  Our major challenge is that we have to keep all these classes perfectly up to date on a near-real-time basis. Technology integration is part of our solution, but certainly not the whole answer. Think for a moment – how would you solve this problem? If you're enjoying thinking about possible solutions, how you would monitor and improve them over time, and how your work would fit into the bigger picture of what we do at CourseHorse, then you'll love this job.  In this role, we'll show you exactly how we've solved this problem, and then task you with assisting the operations department with managing it and making it better every day.
