Some of the roles we hire for have a client ready to go right away. Others don't yet, and either way, you go through the same process. When there's no client lined up yet, we spend that time getting to know people properly, so we're not starting from zero the moment one does show up. Your recruiter will tell you plainly which situation applies to you.

What this job actually is

Good copy doesn't just sound nice, it moves someone from reading to doing. Somebody has to turn a topic into a blog post that actually gets read, a subject line that actually gets opened, a page that actually gets someone to act. That's this role. You're not filling a content calendar for its own sake, you're writing things meant to change what the reader does next.

The subject matter and platforms can shift depending on the business you're supporting. What stays the same is the job itself: write to get a result, not just to fill space.

What you'll actually do

• Write SEO-friendly blog content that actually gets read and moves people toward a decision
• Write email sequences built to get opened, read, and acted on, not just sent
• Write website copy that's clear enough to keep someone on the page instead of bouncing
• Write ad copy for digital platforms built around a specific conversion goal
• Use ChatGPT or similar tools to speed up first drafts, then apply your own editorial judgment on what actually ships
• Research a topic you didn't already know well enough to explain it simply to someone else

What we're actually looking for

• 2-5 years writing blogs, email campaigns, website copy, and ad copy
• A portfolio of real, published writing you can point to
• Written English that's genuinely fluent, grammar and tone that don't need a second pass
• Comfortable using ChatGPT or similar AI tools to draft faster, and confident enough to rewrite what it gives you into something that's actually yours
• Able to take a complex or unfamiliar topic and explain it in plain language
• SEO knowledge is a plus, not a requirement

A few things that matter more than they sound like they should

• Internet that doesn't drop mid-deadline
• You show up on time, every time
• If a draft isn't going to land on time, you say so before the deadline, not after
• You follow through on what you said you'd do without someone having to chase you for it

How the process actually works

Six steps. Same steps whether or not there's a client waiting.

• We read your CV. Not a keyword scan, an actual read. If it's clearly AI-generated with nothing specific in it, that's usually obvious and it doesn't help you.
• A short intro video. Two minutes of you talking is worth more than a page of text. We're checking if you're clear and comfortable on camera, your English skills, and your professional setup (camera, lighting, sound...)
• A call with a recruiter, about 30 minutes. We'll ask you to walk us through something real you've done, so have a specific example ready instead of a general answer.
• A couple of short take-home exercises. Nothing sneaky, nothing that takes your whole evening.
• A reference check. We'll ask for someone who actually managed or worked closely with you, not a character reference.
• If a client's ready: one interview with them. They make the final call on who they hire, but you don't repeat anything you've already done here.Here's the honest part: sometimes when you finish this process, there's no job waiting yet. That's not a runaround, it's how we work. We'd rather spend the time getting to know good people properly now, so that when a client does come looking for someone like you, we already know you're ready, instead of starting the search from scratch. If that's your situation, you won't be left guessing. We'll tell you where things stand, including when the honest answer is "nothing new yet." And if you take another job while you're waiting, that's completely fine, just tell us, and we'll pick things back up whenever the timing works for you.

What to actually expect from us

If you make it to an interview, you'll get real, specific feedback about how it went either way, not a copy-paste line. If your CV doesn't move forward past the application stage, you'll still hear back, but it'll be a quick automated note rather than a personal one. With how many applications a posting like this gets, that's the only honest way we can get back to everyone fast.
