Introducing the Hack Club Media Gap Year Fellowship
This is a paid, full-time, in-person role. $50k/year + $5k equipment stipend + $10k travel + healthcare & benefits at Hack Club HQ in Burlington, Vermont.
It's intended to be something you do for a year before
you go to college or whatever your plans are after high school, but if you are on an alternate
schooling path, that works too!
You will be based at Hack Club HQ, working on
projects and making videos with the team, as well as travelling all over the world to different
Hack Club events!
The job: Make Hack Club a household name. Reach new
audiences and as many teens as you can.
