Social Media Intern

The goal of this project is to grow and engage Mimicry’s social media audience — with a focus on TikTok and LinkedIn — to drive brand awareness, grow the newsletter subscriber base, and build a vibrant student community. Tasks and activities: Conduct market research to identify content trends, hashtags, and formats that resonate with Mimicry’s target audience (Canadian post-secondary business students). Develop and propose content ideas that align with Mimicry’s brand and strategic goals. Create engaging social media content (short-form videos, text posts, graphics) using tools like Canva, CapCut, or native platform editors. Write captions and research hashtags to optimize reach and engagement. Assist in scheduling and posting content on TikTok and LinkedIn. Monitor social media performance (views, likes, comments, shares, follower growth), and provide insights and recommendations for improvement. Engage with the community by responding to comments, DMs, and participating in relevant discussions. Deliverables: Market research & trend report (1–2 pages) — content ideas & best practices based on current trends. Social media content calendar — a simple monthly plan of posts to be created and shared. Weekly content — 3–5 social media posts per week (exact number can be adapted based on capacity and platform). Monthly performance report — brief summary of key metrics, what worked well, and ideas for future improvement.
