The Role
So you like to write, eh? Believe the pen is mightier than the sword? Have a tattoo of Mark Twain? We’re seeking self-driven writers with experience creating content, managing content and promoting top-tier content. From our student-written blog to our social channels to copywriting with well-known brands, the ideal candidates will be able to output large quantities of premium content for a student audience. Our mission is simple—make student lives easier. Every article lives and dies by three keywords: to inform, engage and empower. SLN’s voice is honest, conversationalist, cheeky, modern and a left hook to the jaw. Punchy.
