Why is this the best place to upskill

This isn't your average internship. You'll be joining Truth Report, one of South Africa's fastest-growing independent media brands, and learning directly from Rob Hersov, Gareth Cliff, Renaldo Gouws, Sama Sambit, Byron Shepard, Kuhle Masego, and other creators shaking up the media landscape.

You'll master the real mechanics of online growth: what makes people stop scrolling, click, and care. Forget theory. Here, you'll publish daily, get instant feedback, and grow fast.

What you'll do

• Publish daily across X, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and WhatsApp Channels
• Write short, punchy video descriptions and CMS copy for new posts
• Manage website CMS (WordPress): create posts, embed YouTube videos, add thumbnails, SEO titles/descriptions, categories, and links
• Cut 15–60 second clips from interviews or commentary pieces
• Build engaging threads, reels, or carousels that simplify complex South African stories
• Manage comments and DMs and surface interesting leads for the editorial team
• Track weekly performance and pitch experiments for titles, thumbnails, and timing

What you'll learn (fast)

How platform algorithms think, what makes a post perform, and how to run a video-first media operation that actually gets seen.

You'll smash this if you

• Write clean, witty, and sharp copy and enjoy South African news and culture
• Can turn a five-minute video into three crisp posts and a clean CMS article with the right tags and links
• Are organised, deadline-reliable, low-ego, and coachable
• Bonus: basic video editing (CapCut or Descript) or design skills (Canva or Photoshop)

KPIs

• 2–4 posts per day across channels
• 15–25 shorts per week
• 100% CMS accuracy (SEO, categories, featured image, embeds)
• 0 missed mirrors within 24 hours of YouTube go-live
• Consistent week-on-week growth
