HOOKED
wants YOU!
Calling all NUS students! HOOKED is working
towards world domination and we are looking for the brightest and best to join
our team. Vacancies are open for Journalists, Marketing Executives
and the Creative Team (Web Design, Graphics, Web Development). So if you
think you have what it takes to be part of HOOKED,
read on to find out more about us!
What is HOOKED?
We are the official online publication for NUS students that focuses on
lifestyle and events in and around the campus. We invade all NUS students'
mailboxes twice a month, whether they like it or not. ;)
HOOKED is also currently the most popular NUS
student-developed website. We offer an excellent platform for you to not just
gain experience working in a team on a campus-wide scale, but also expose your
work to the entire student population and beyond to professional industries we
work with.
How can I contribute to HOOKED?
You can choose to join us as a journalist, a marketer or be a part of the
creative & IT team.
What do the journalists do?
They cover events as wide ranging as fashion shoots, press conferences and
one-on-one interviews with international and regional stars like Jodie Foster,
Fort Minor and Rainie Yang Cheng Lin. We also review the latest movies and CDs,
and speak our minds on issues that matter to students, like recent
fee hikes and the campus shift to Bukit Timah.
What do the marketers do?
They source for sponsors and advertisers who want to publicize on our website
and newsletter. They are an integral part of the team, simply because we need
the money. They are also responsible for getting freebies that we regularly
give out to you cheap readers. Just joking, we love you guys.
What does the creative & IT team do?
They maintain the website and newsletter, and every once in a while have
creative differences which may lead to throttling of throats. They also design
the awesome pamphlets, adverts and other miscellaneous stuff, contributing to
the destruction of rain forests worldwide.
Why should I join HOOKED?
Whereas others will say that they are a fun-loving bunch, we'll only say that
you should join us because we provide the student population with the latest
news and events, because we are drop-dead gorgeous, because we have hits of 1
200 000++, and because we rock. Simple.
