What does this client’s business do? 

At the forefront of content marketing, the client helps entrepreneurs and creators expand their businesses through the creation of strategic podcast content. They provide not only production services, but also branding, marketing, and all necessary support for creators. 

Who was hired and what was their role?

Although a podcast production company, the client also creates branding and advertising assets for their creators. Thus, they needed a skilled video editor to join their growing team. 

Through Somewhere’s assistance, they were able to hire Jim.

  • Collaborates with the creative team for branding directions

What was the candidate’s background before being hired?

Jim has nine years of experience as a video editor, and working remotely is not new to him either.
