Writing and Editing, Content Writing
Are you the type of person who is always discovering bizarre kitchen gadgets, coupon codes, or interesting stores and sending links to your friends until they beg you to stop?
We want to hear from you!
BuzzFeed is looking for shopping- and products-focused writers for three-month, full-time fellowship roles. This is a paid position (starting at $18/hour). The Fellowship allows candidates to work fully remotely in select locations, but we also have monthly in-office days in our New York office for those who live locally. BuzzFeed's shopping section is an expanding editorial endeavor that includes both service-oriented and entertaining content for a shopping-minded audience (see our “Shopping” page for examples).
The deadline to apply for this Fellowship is April 26th, 2024 by 5 PM EST, but applications are being considered on a rolling basis. All application materials will need to be submitted when you apply. The intended (and tentative) start date for this Fellowship is June 10th, 2024.
The BuzzFeed Shopping & Products Fellowship is a program for aspiring and hungry writers eager to hone their skills, and to learn by doing. The program is a crash course in how to help our audience discover deals and great products through themed roundups and more.
You should have enough shopping knowledge to discover and share products and deals, and enough of a low-key (or high-key) internet obsession to quickly find, drive, and react to current trends. You’re just as comfortable writing about a product you love yourself as digging into reviews to find out which viral skincare products actually work or unearthing quirky kitchen gadgets people haven’t seen before.
Fellows will work with and learn from members of the BuzzFeed Shopping team. You won’t be running errands for senior staff, or transcribing someone else’s interviews, you will be pitching ideas, brainstorming, collaborating on non-writing projects, and writing dozens of stories that will be published to BuzzFeed.com and promoted across our social channels. The Fellowship is fun and inspiring, but also fast-paced and challenging.
