Role overview
As a Social Media Intern at Basic Socials you sit at the centre of a client's day-to-day presence. You plan the calendar, write the hooks, brief the edits, hit publish and read the data the next morning. Nothing gets stuck waiting for approval from four layers of people — you ship, you learn, you adjust.
Responsibilities
- Plan and maintain weekly content calendars across Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube
- Write scroll-stopping hooks, captions and CTAs in each brand's voice
- Spot trends, sounds and formats early and adapt them for client brands
- Coordinate with editors and designers to get assets ready on time
- Schedule and publish posts, then track reach, saves, shares and watch time
- Turn weekly analytics into one clear page of what worked and what to change
- Engage with comments and DMs to keep community response times fast
Requirements
- Genuine, daily fluency with Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube
- Strong written English and a feel for tone of voice
- Basic Canva and CapCut skills
- Organised — you can juggle several brands without dropping a deadline
- Available in Hyderabad, full-time internship hours
Nice to have
- You run your own page or newsletter
- Comfort with Notion, Airtable or any content workflow tool
- Basic understanding of paid social and boosted posts
- You've used ChatGPT or similar tools for ideation
What you'll learn
- How a content strategy is actually built, not just posted
- Hook writing frameworks that transfer to any platform
- Reading analytics like a strategist instead of a spectator
- AI-assisted research, ideation and repurposing workflows
- Client communication and how agencies really run
Why join Basic Socials
- We're small enough that your ideas get built the same week you have them.
- Every workflow here runs on AI, so you leave with skills most teams haven't touched.
- You'll work across branding, content, performance and video instead of one narrow lane.
- No politics, no ladder, no one taking credit for your work.
