Job Title: Social Content Intern
Location: NYC - sorry, no remote :-(
Compensation: $20 / hour (eligible for promotions and potential full time conversion)
Hours: 10 – 15 hours a week
About Us:
Wonsulting is on a mission to turn underdogs into winners by helping individuals from underrepresented backgrounds get hired and succeed in their careers. We are a dynamic team launching AI-powered products that support the job search process. You’ll be working with 2 content creators: Jerry (1.3M on Instagram) & Jonathan (850K on Instagram).
Your Manager:
You will be working under Ponce, a social strategist, who helped grow a YouTube channel from 200K to 1.3M and a TikTok account from 100K in just 13 months, generating ~550M views. Ponce has a nontraditional background, having started his career in healthcare with aspirations of becoming a physical therapist, before discovering his passion for social content. Fun fact: he’s traveled to 36 countries.
Position Overview:
We’re seeking a creative and motivated Social Content Intern to assist in the development of short-form, career-focused content for platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. As the Social Content Intern, you will own the initial phases of content creation, including research, ideation, outlining, scripting, and shotlisting. This role is perfect for someone who genuinely loves consuming social media and has a keen eye for viral trends and big creators.
Responsibilities:
- Research: Stay up-to-date with the latest social media trends and viral content. Conduct research to inform content ideas, drawing inspiration from top creators & trending topics.
- Ideation: Brainstorm and pitch creative content ideas that will engage and entertain our audience.
- Scripting: Write short, engaging scripts tailored for short-form video formats.
- Shotlisting: Work with the content and creative team to develop shotlists that enhance the storytelling and production quality of each video.
Requirements:
- The only real requirement: You MUST consume and LOVE consuming content across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. If you're constantly watching and analyzing viral trends, you’re the perfect fit.
Nice to Have:
- Career knowledge is a plus but not required.
Interview Process
Application:
To apply, we want to get a feel for your passion for social media and creative thinking. Please submit the following:
- Top 5 favorite creators: Please don’t feel the need to say Ponce, Jerry, Jonathan or Wonsulting — this isn’t going to earn you brownie points 😂.
- 3-5 sentences explaining why you love these creators.
- 1-2 sentences on what you would change or improve if you were their strategist.
- Your resume.
Interview 1: Ponce
During your first interview, Ponce will dive into your love for content creation and strategy. Expect questions like:
- What type of content do you most enjoy?
- What specific details about their content do you think makes it so enjoyable?
- How would you improve their content?
- Do you have an eye for virality? You might be asked to analyze which of three videos you think went viral.
Interview 2: Jerry
In this interview, we’ll talk more about your goals and passion for social media, as well as why this role excites you. Some of the questions you can expect are:
- Why do you want a role like this?
- Why work with a creator like me?
- What’s one thing you hope to accomplish with this experience?
- We’ll also discuss your passion for social media and why you’re interested in joining our team.
What a Week Will Look Like:
In a typical week, you’ll spend around 3-4 hours working directly with myself (Jerry) and your manager, Ponce, in person. During this time, you’ll be involved in the creative process—filming, brainstorming social strategy, and collaborating on content ideas. The other 10-11 hours will be more flexible and remote, where you'll work on your responsibilities like research, outlining, and scripting. Each week will vary in terms of which tasks are heavier, but you’ll have a good balance across all content phases.
Additionally, opportunities for business travel (eg LA, SF, Dallas, Pittsburgh, Vancouver etc.) may be available.
