- Research what other translation, immigration, and legal accounts post, and pitch ideas to try
Who we are looking for
- A current student or recent graduate in marketing, communications, journalism, or a related field
- Clear, careful writing and an eye for what makes a post worth stopping on
- Familiarity with the major platforms from using them, even if you haven't run a brand account before
