Job Description

Slate is hiring a paid audience engagement intern to help grow our social video audience. Ideal candidates think strategically about connecting with users across social platforms (from YouTube and TikTok to Instagram and beyond), both to expand Slate’s reach and deepen our relationship with existing followers. They have a newsy sensibility; know how to edit short-form video; write compelling copy; think creatively about how to engage scrolling audiences; have ideas for accessing new audiences; and are able to use analytics to guide strategy.

 

The audience engagement intern will be able to help identify how digital media trends are evolving and have a desire to experiment with new strategies and test those instincts. They will work across teams, interacting with writers and editors on the site side, as well as producers and hosts on the podcast side, and our art and video teams.

 

While this role has a primary focus on social video, the audience engagement intern will also have the opportunity to develop skills in audience strategy more broadly, touching on everything from podcast promotion to newsletters to Reddit engagement.

 

Slate has offices in New York and D.C. This role will be based out of one of those offices.
 

The pay is minimum wage, and work is 35 to 40 hours a week.

 

This role has a flexible start date in May or early June, and will last for three months.
