How to Apply
Please send:
1. Your resume
2. A short introduction about yourself
3. A **1–2 minute Loom video** introducing yourself in English
4. Any SEO, website, Google Business Profile, content, or digital marketing projects you have worked on — school projects and personal projects are welcome

**5. Tell us about one software, tool, or skill you taught yourself recently. How did you learn it?**
We are looking for someone who wants to **build real skills and grow with the company long-term**, not someone who is simply looking to complete a list of repetitive tasks.
