  • Must be dependable and a clear communicator.
  • Must have an eye for detail (for example : Can you spot the Kardashian in this crowd shot?)
  • Must have a clear focus on ensuring ET is putting out the best content possible (for example : Is the audio I’m transcribing sound muffled in such a way I should flag this for a supervisor?)
  • Experience is not necessary, but education and / or an internship in TV or in the entertainment industry is preferred.
  • Strong knowledge of pop culture
  • Familiarity with social platforms like Instagram and TikTok
