ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for current Babson undergraduate students to create authentic “day in the life” vlog videos for our YouTube series, #BabsonUnscripted. These videos give prospective students a genuine glimpse into what it’s like to be a Babson student, directly from the students themselves.

WHY WE’RE HIRING

YouTube consistently ranks among the most-used platforms by high school students during their college search process.

• Capture authentic moments that reflect what it’s really like to be a Babson student.
• Collaborate with the multimedia team to ensure content meets quality and brand standards.
• Each project’s scope and hours will be clearly defined before work begins.
• Note: This role is focused on filming only; editing is not required. However, editing skills are a plus if you have them!

QUALIFICATIONS

• Open to all current undergraduate students at Babson.
• Comfortable being both behind and in front of the camera.
• Prior experience with vlogging or video creation is highly encouraged.
• Strong storytelling and video composition skills are a plus.
• Editing experience is a bonus, but not necessary.
• Personable, creative, and able to work in a fast-paced, evolving environment.

• Any relevant experience with vlogging or video creation (not required, but helpful!)
