What you'll be doing
- Writing high-quality long-form educational content for the blog, Eg: converting some of my videos into articles, eg: how to study for exams, spaced repetition, the retrospective revision timetable etc.
- Researching and writing scripts for educational YouTube videos and articles, Eg: If I suggest a title like 'Should you study with music in the background?' and suggest some provisional thoughts, I'd want you to take those suggestions and do some research, find relevant scientific papers, and formulate a video structure + script which can then be turned into a blog post / article.
- Managing a team of content writers for individual projects. This will become more relevant as we grow and need to recruit more people.
- Project managing video production and editing when the occasion calls for it - No experience required, just a willingness to learn and generally being adept at using a computer.
- Managing and growing various streams and channels of revenue.

Perks of the Job
- Development - You’ll learn / improve a set of very useful skills like writing, content marketing, research, advertising, managing a team, managing a business, video production, video editing etc.
- Trajectory - You’ll be an early-stage team member in a multi-faceted online business with characteristics similar to high-growth startups. In 2 years for example, the YouTube channel has grown from zero to 370,000 subscribers, with reach and revenue significantly higher than many traditional businesses.
- Flexibility - You’ll mostly work from home at whatever hours suit you best.
- Impact - Your work will be seen by millions of people around the world, and hopefully impact them in a positive way.
- Adventure - You’ll be able to join travel opportunities and other fun things that come with working in a choose-your-own-adventure business.
- Ownership - If you’ve got fun or interesting ideas that align with the business goals, you’ll have free reign to make them happen without having to wade through red tape and middle-management.
- Mentorship - You’ll work directly with me every day, for whatever that’s worth. I'd hope you'd be able to learn from my experience of building businesses, growing an audience and wearing lots of hats at once.

The Ideal Applicant
1. You’re based in the KOLKATA, and willing and able to travel to INSTITUTE at least once per week. As much as I love working with people from all over the world, the first hire probably needs to be someone I can physically meet regularly.
2. You’re able to make this your full-time job.
3. You don't mind working evenings and weekends if the occasion calls for it. As a doctor, sometimes I'm only free at odd hours, so you'll need to be pretty flexible to work with me.
4. You’re keen on working together for at least three years. I’m looking for someone who wants to play the long-game.
5. You speak and write English fluently and have graduated from university.
6. You’ve seen / read / heard enough of my content to understand the content strategy, tone and style. You’ve got some ideas on how to expand into other categories that'll provide value to our audience.
7. You’ve got some experience of writing, preferably on the internet. You understand the reasons why writing on the internet is different from academic writing.
8. You’ve got some interest in tech, productivity, apps, entrepreneurship and/or personal finance. Lots of our content will be based around these topics, so having an existing interest in them will make things much more fun.
9. You enjoy reading self-improvement books. If you think ‘I’d never read a book about happiness’, we’re probably not the right fit for one another : )
10. You're good at figuring stuff out. You're willing and able to learn new skills by using Google and YouTube, and don't
