How to Apply

We’re a pretty down-to-earth bunch, so if you’re interested in applying, in lieu of an elaborate cover letter (seriously… don’t), you can email hello@techsesh.co and include bullet points with the following info:

  • A link to your LinkedIn profile

  • What job site sent you our way

  • Your location

  • Your phone number

  • Some brief bullet points about your influencer marketing/client-facing experience. (I kick out applications that are poorly written and/or have typos. #FunLittleTip: install Grammarly. It’s a game changer.)

  • It would be great if you can include the salary range that you’re looking for. If you don’t… I’ll probably email you and ask about it, and that’s just extra steps for everyone involved. :)

USEFUL INTEL TO KNOW THAT’LL REALLY HELP WITH YOUR APPLICATION:

  • Applications that are submitted using a job site (instead of emailed to the above email address) will not be considered.

  • Pay attention to your writing style. We write in a colloquial, one-with-the-people-while-still-being-basically-grammatically-correct style. This is not a requirement, but I do get a decent number of applicants every day, and 90% of the applications are boring AF. The ones that have a fun “voice” and quirky writing immediately catch my attention. In a good way.

  • Lastly, put yourself in the shoes of the person in charge of interviewing… what do you think that person would want to hear?

TechSesh is proud to be building a fun and challenging workplace that is free from discrimination. We believe that a team made up of diverse experiences, backgrounds, and perspectives will make for a better working environment and stronger company.
