Who are we looking for? You're a student or recent graduate actively building your marketing skills — through coursework, a certification, or a program in progress — and can point to that as proof this is a craft you're serious about. You have 1+ years of marketing experience, with a demonstrable background in social media content creation and copywriting. This can include personal accounts or brand work — we'll ask you for examples. You regularly post on Instagram, TikTok, or LinkedIn yourself, personally or for a brand. Living on these platforms means you'll spot a trending sound, format, or caption style faster than someone who only studies social media from the outside. You're a self-starter who needs minimal oversight once you're given a brief, and you're comfortable stepping in proactively rather than waiting to be told what's next. You're a reliable, responsive communicator. We should never have to wonder where something stands, and if a deadline is at risk, you flag it early rather than after it's missed. You understand that cooperation and teamwork are key to success, and you're detail-oriented enough to thrive on sophisticated, fast-moving campaigns. What skills will you be learning?
