Why this opportunity
On your shift, you make the calls
What to post during your shift, whether to push, and how to headline it — you make the call and publish it yourself. For a social media editor, a year of “hitting publish yourself” is far more substantial than just handling scheduling on a large team.
Two platforms, and after a year, a complete track record of hands-on operations
Topic selection and engagement on a Facebook Page, plus one LINE Official Account push message per shift. After a full year, you'll have real hands-on experience and a performance record on two platforms—not just writing skills.
No interviewing or video editing skills needed, and any field of study is fine
The hiring company has made clear that this role does not involve reporting or in-depth writing, video shooting or editing, or graphic design expertise, and any major is welcome. What matters is news judgment and the ability to write Chinese headlines.
Shift rules laid out upfront
You rotate between morning and evening shifts, work weekends and national holidays per the roster, and get 8 days off per month; shift intervals follow Article 34 of the Labor Standards Act, so you will never be scheduled for an evening shift followed by the next day's morning shift. We lay out the conditions up front so you can judge for yourself whether the rhythm suits your life.
Salary ranges stated upfront
NT$42,000–45,000 per month based on experience; those with hands-on experience managing a Facebook Page backend can be offered the top of the range. You will not have to apply and finish interviews before you know whether the terms work.
