Our client is looking for Technology Industry Writers

CLIENT’S STATEMENT

Our Agency is a talent startup modernizing how people find & succeed at work. We provide concierge services and digital products to knowledge workers, mirroring talent representation and management. Unlike recruiters, we’re entirely paid by and motivated by the individual candidates we work with, enabling us to focus on their career outcomes. Their success is our success.

We work primarily in the tech industry: through our platform, mid to C-level folks in product, engineering, design, marketing, and ops are doing incredible work at companies like Square, Drift, Roblox, Reddit, Netflix, Amazon, SpaceX, Notion, Peloton, and hundreds more. We’re backed by top-tier venture capital firms like Resolute Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, and Ludlow Venture.

ABOUT THE JOB:

You will be responsible for writing or editing documents related to our clients, helping us pitch them to companies, tell their stories to potential future employers, and otherwise expand their personal brand.

The results of your work and related outreach will be sent directly to recruiting contacts and hiring managers to help our Free Agents land their next role. You’ll work with a variety of client profiles to write compelling, customized copy that demonstrates their work experience and, importantly, tells a coherent story.

You should have familiarity with the tech industry and the roles that are common within it (product management, software engineering, performance marketing, ops, etc), as that familiarity will allow you to better write copy that sells a specific candidate’s story.

YOU WILL:

Hop on a call with the client to learn about their career experience
Draft and edit a one-page resume that’s aligned with the our agency’s method
Create a customizable cover letter/cold email template based on the resume
Receive and integrate raw feedback on your writing, style, or content
Draft and edit emails or messages that sell individual candidates to specific jobs/companies
Write and edit long-form content related to startups and technology

YOU MIGHT BE GOOD FOR THIS ROLE IF OTHER JOB TITLES YOU’RE LOOKING AT INCLUDE:

Content Creator/Manager
Technology Writer or Editor
Copywriter
Other tech professional (product manager, engineer, marketer, etc) looking for consistent part-time work
THINGS THAT YOU MAY WANT TO KNOW:
We enforce, enthusiastically, the Oxford comma.
Our agency has a particular voice we’re looking to keep/evolve, and we’ll provide detailed feedback to help you find this voice quickly.
We have our tried-and-true resume format and style we strictly adhere to.
You should have familiarity with the tech industry and its related roles so that you can understand our agents’ stories and why they fit particular roles/companies. Candidates with knowledge of both technical fields as well as writing are especially encouraged to apply.
This is a consistent, hourly position. We assign work daily and are looking for writers & freelancers open to that level of consistency. Hourly pay for this role starts at $25–38 per hour.

WHY OUR AGENCY MATTERS:

Job search and career progression are broken. Candidates haphazardly apply to jobs, meet only a few companies, settle during offer negotiation, and generally don’t optimize the process of moving along in our careers. As a result, our agency believes that everyone is undercompensated.

That doesn’t just have to do with the money we make, but also the teams we’re a part of, the type of work we get to do, and the alignment to mission along the way. All of this has an impact on our own satisfaction, health, and financial wellness, but we don’t give it the attention it deserves.

By aligning incentives with individual talent, our agency is enabled to build first-of-their-kind products & services and define a new category of career management.
