About ChkM8

ChkM8 is a mobile app designed to enhance user safety and authenticity through a unique rating system. Our GTM strategy focuses on University Greek communities and university students.  We created a reliable platform that allows users to share and view ratings, fostering trust and transparency in interactions.  ChkM8 is determined to prevent not report, unnecessary trauma brought on by inappropriate behavior (hazing) and instead empower its user to leverage their own ratings to others.

Role Overview.

We’re looking for a creative and trend-aware Social Content Creator (SCC) to help turn our monthly messaging into engaging visual content for TikTok, Instagram, and LinkedIn. This role is design- and execution-focused—not strategy-heavy. You’ll work directly with the founder to bring ideas to life using Canva, templates, and content collected by our on-campus Brand Ambassadors.

If you love meme culture, TikTok trends, and designing social media posts that speak Gen Z, you’ll feel right at home here. 

Key Responsibilities

🎨 Content Creation & Posting (Weekly)

• Create 6–9 short-form content pieces per week (Reels, carousels, TikTok, etc.) using provided messaging and themes
• Use Canva templates or video apps like Cap Cut to simplify design work
• Schedule or upload posts to Instagram, TikTok, and other channels

📩 Monthly Safe House Communication Support

• Use messaging provided by the Marketing Coordinator to format 1–2 monthly announcement posts or blogs
• These may include shoutouts for high-performing Greek chapters or theme-driven safety updates

🤝 Work with Brand Ambassadors

• Coordinate with student BAs to gather on-the-ground content from mixers and interviews
• Turn raw footage into creative content, adding music, captions, and ChkM8 branding
• Occasionally help draft simple questions or mini-campaign prompts BAs can film around

Support You’ll Receive

• A Monthly Messaging Guide: includes campaign themes, tone guidance, sample captions
• Weekly 1:1 check-in with the Founder for creative feedback
• Access to all visual assets, templates, and media via Google Drive

You’d Be Great If You…

• Are active on TikTok, IG, and know what’s trending (and what’s cringey)
• Prefer designing visuals or editing videos over writing long captions
• Can take a theme and run with it, remixing it into content students actually watch
• Are organized and can meet weekly content deadlines without mgmt oversight

Tools You’ll Likely Use

• Canva or Adobe Express for post design
• CapCut, InShot, or native TikTok editor for short videos
• Google Drive, Later, or TikTok/Instagram scheduling tools
• Chat GPT or AI of your choice for posting content /image creations.

How to Apply

1. Submit your resume or short portfolio  ------------
2. Share 2–3 social posts or video clips you’ve made (class project, meme page, or personal content is fine)
3. Optional: Schedule a 15-min Q&A chat to learn more before applying  ------------/charlie-chkm8/introduction-to-chkm8-zoom
