In 2022, The Min Cave  launched as a Telegram group for writers and content marketers. It's now curating jobs at scale and creating resources for content professionals.

We've been free since launch, serving 10,000+ writers and marketers. I'm restructuring the business model and need help keeping the community engaged while I rebuild. So, I'm looking to bring on a few smart people for the next phase, starting with a social media intern.

Manage social posting across Linked In, Threads, and Substack:

• Repurpose content at scale (articles → Linked In posts→ Threads threads → Substack snippets)
• Post daily and weekly job roundups using our templates
• Create original content from industry observations
• Build and maintain the content calendar
• Design simple graphics and visual assets (Canva-level)
• Spot content gaps

Success looks like
: consistent, quality output across all three platforms while I focus on product. Responsibilities may shrink or expand as we go.

Must Have:

• Genuine interest in The Min Cave  (follow us, read The Roundup, understand our audience).
• Strong writing samples showing punchy, conversational voice. If you have your own Substack a personal blog or a business with social media presence, it's a plus.
• Good taste in writing and creators (I want to know who you follow and why).
• Some experience with content scheduling (Buffer or manual)
• Basic Canva skills
• Research skills. Knowing how to turn data into a story.

Nice to Have:

• Other content marketing or writing community memberships
• Familiarity with job boards
• Aportfolio of social posts
• AI curiosity (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.)

Mindset:

• Goal-driven
  : you understand that every post has a purpose
• Proactive and curious
  : you spot gaps, suggest ideas, and learn from data all on your own.
• Excellence-driven
  : you cringe at typos and sloppy work
• Funny
  : you get our playful, direct voice
• Creative
  :
  You can spin up beautiful stories from boring data.
• Collaborative
  : you welcome feedback and work well with others

This internship is unpaid, but here's what I'm offering to make it worth your while.

• Free access to all The Min Cave  products while you're working.
• Mentorship
  : 1 hour weekly for strategy training and live feedback. Rest is async.
• Learning
  :
  You'll learn how to iterate on analytics, find what works, and how to discard ideas that don't.
• Experiments
  :
  Brand and content guides, AI workflows, and image/video design.
• Autonomy
  :
  You own all three platforms with full creative control. Drafts get approval for 60–90 days, then you post independently. You figure out best posting times through testing.
• Career capital after 90 days
  :
  Letter of recommendation or testimonial, multi-platform case study for your portfolio, potential path to paid role.

90-Day Goals:

• Consistent posting across all three platforms with zero missed weeks
• Growing engagement (saves, comments, shares, replies)
• Content calendar system that scales
• Clear sense of what performs on each platform and why
