Manager, Partnerships

How’d I land this internship?

In 2022, my wife and I moved across the country from Provo, Utah to Raleigh, North Carolina. 

I got active on LinkedIn
- started growing my network 
- posted about jobs, tagged TeamWork

Davis Filippell, President of TeamWork Online, sent me a connection request and we exchanged some messages.

1 month later, Davis flew to Charlotte for the Sports Marketing Association Conference. 

He offered to meet at 8am.

I said yes!

I woke up at 5am and drove 3 hours from Raleigh to Charlotte.

You might think I’m crazy 

But those of you that know Davis know that it was worth every minute.

He’s energetic, insightful, and motivating.

I left that meeting inspired 

And with an internship offer 😉

Marketing & Partnerships Intern

North Carolina Courage

There’s not enough sports jobs

I can’t find any…

🤦‍♂️

There’s 6,000+ jobs on TeamWork Online 

But not every job is in the
NFL 
MLB 
NBA 

Stop closing the door on opportunities.

Just because you didn’t play the sport growing up, or you don’t watch it, doesn’t mean you can’t work in it.

I never played soccer.

I worked in the NWSL in gameday operations for the NC Courage. It helped me land my job at TeamWork Online.

Because the experience built my resume.

There’s hundreds of open jobs in Minor League Baseball, in the American Hockey League, in the National Women’s Soccer League, and so many more!

It’s good to have a favorite sport.

But don’t shut down the idea of working in other sports. That just might be the path that gets you to your dream job.

This is how you break into sports.

College Dream Job

Because that’s exactly what working at BYU Football was… a dream.
