For the second year in a row UK University outfitter, Jack Wills, asked college students across the nation to prove why they should win the Best Summer Job in America. What exactly is this epic summer job? A six-week internship as a Jack Wills “Seasonnaire” living and working on the island of Nantucket. These “Seasonnaires” are ambassadors for the brand who embody the Jack Wills’ lifestyle. The internship includes amazing opportunities likes traveling to Jack Wills stores in resort locations around the U.S. as well as attending the largest Jack Wills events in the UK.
This year’s winners are perfect representatives of the Jack Wills lifestyle. Douglas Gautraud is a self-proclaimed Jack Wills man and an architecture student at the University of Cincinnati. Deb Tam is a lacrosse star at Messiah College and an aspiring fashion blogger. In addition to snagging the “Best Summer Job in America,” Gautraud and Tam have each won $20,000 in tuition. Their amazing summer internship will begin on June 3 with media training in the UK, a meet-and-greet with the company’s founders, and the opportunity to attend the Jack Wills Varsity Polo event in London.
