Position: Paid Social Media Intern
Where: Seattle
What: Do you have an undying love for social media? If you can’t walk a block without thinking about checking your Facebook or conjuring up something to tweet then this may be the job for you. BUT, your recreational social habits must also come along with a deep interest in knowing more about how the social web works than anyone else on the planet. Do you have a desire to be on the ground floor of a social testing lab? Enjoy creating live, consumer experiments and examining results? A desire to dig in on the numbers behind your communities and brainstorm new ways of engaging on social platforms will make this position more like a favorite hobby, than anything remotely close to a job. Are you also TV and pop-culture obsessed? Someone with a near encyclopedic knowledge across a variety of TV shows (see www.wetpaint.com for examples of what they cover). Do you also fancy yourself as a writer, capable of busting out prose on last night’s Gossip Girl episode or the latest Real Housewives drama?
Reponsibilites:
- Working directly with the social media team to create the Wetpaint social experience
- Engaging directly with fans/followers to keep their relationship with Wetpaint going strong
- Brainstorm new ways of communicating on social platforms to improve on our daily results
- Flawlessly execute experiments and analyze results to see what works
- Identifying and building relationships with key influencers
From a tactical, day-to-day perspective, what this means is that you’ll be:
- Distributing Wetpaint content on social channels with several target audiences
- Keeping track of “the conversation” and responding when necessary
- Building our fan base
- Tracking performance of post/tweet activity and reporting on results
- Monitoring social areas for content ideas
