Have you ever dreamed of a role that offers the chance to combine your social-media skills with an opportunity to eat free doughnuts?
A San Francisco doughnut chain is hiring a "doughnut enthusiast content intern" to take pictures and videos of the 3,500 doughnuts it hand makes each day.
Founded in 2012, Johnny Doughnuts has 75 staff spread across four locations and a food truck in the San Francisco Bay area.
It's now looking to hire a "doughnut enthusiast content intern" to create photos and videos for its TikTok and Instagram channels.
They'll work from Johnny's sites, photographing in-store displays, as well as new and seasonal flavors. "They might even get a chance to taste some of Johnny's newest creations in the kitchen!," Craig Blum, the founder of Johnny Doughnuts told Insider.
They'll be paid $17.50 an hour to work up to 10 hours a week. It's initially a three-month contract but there is the chance for an extension.
According to the job description, the applicant must have one to two years' photography experience and be familiar with editing software and design tools. Video experience is a plus, the advert says.
Blum told Insider that the company wanted someone who had an understanding of social media trends.
"We don't expect our intern to know everything but we want someone with a fresh perspective who's ready to take the lead on creating content."
Applicants can make their application stand out by demonstrating growth and results from previous projects, Blum added. There is no deadline for applications.
Internships can be a great way for graduates or those transitioning into a new industry to add experience to their résumé, or build connections.
The Coronavirus pandemic had a significant impact on the number of available opportunities as companies took down or temporarily suspended programs. While they're starting to open up again, many remain virtual, or run for a shorter time.
