Student applies for internship with cringeworthy youtube song

-

Instead of making a cover letter to apply for a summer internship at Buzzfeed, Matt Cloutier described to them his desire to work at their company through a more interesting medium: SONG!

We are still waiting to hear if his application was successful. Would it work for your company?

And if you want to know the lyrics…

Buzzfeed, will you hire me
I’m unemployed for summer, twenty fourteen
Tell me what you’re looking for
When an intern walks in your door

I really enjoy your website
All your articles help me waste time
Will you just look in my eyes
I need a job and I’m not telling lies, aww

Buzzfeed, will you hire me?
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Buzzfeed, will you hire me?

I want to make videos
For your company. To make you money.
So much money!
Money fallin down

Just wanna be an intern
I’ll make you coffee. So much Coffee.
Coffee pouring
Coffee pouring down

Don’t you try and pretend
You won’t hire me. You’ll lose in the end!
I’ll work hard, you don’t even know
The crazy ideas this cranium holds.

Buzzfeed, will you hire me
I’m unemployed for summer, twenty fourteen
Tell me what you’re looking for
When an intern walks in your door, aww

Buzzfeed, will you hire me?
whoa whoa whoa whoa
Buzzfeed, will you hire me?

When you’re hiring!
Will you choose my name?!
When you’re hiring!
Please, please choose my name
