Ann Arbor’s Ghostly International turns interns into employees

Interns could have a big future at Ghostly International. The electronic and ambient music label has recently brought on three interns and plans to hire another 1-2 this fall.The Ann Arbor-based firm intends to use the three-month internships as a tryout of sorts for new employees. The interns who do well and make a spot for themselves on the Ghostly team will be brought on as full-time employees.Ghostly International has 15 employees across the U.S., including three at its downtown headquarters. Future plans for that space include a possible retail location for the music label’s apparel, music and other merchandise.Even though many of the Ghostly International’s employees work remotely from big cities across the U.S., like Los Angeles and New York, the company still considers Ann Arbor its home and major influence. Sam Valenti, the firm’s founder, still maintains a home in downtown.Source: Ghostly InternationalWriter: Jon Zemke
