Zikoko Next Gen Intern Details:

Zikoko Next Gen is our Intern Fellowship, built for young, ambitious writers ready to take on the world of digital media.

If you’ve got talent, drive, and a burning need to tell stories, we want to meet you.

Who Should Apply?

This is for the dreamers, the storytellers, and the culture shapers. If you already write for fun, obsess over content, and have opinions that need to be heard, this is your moment.

We’re looking for three interns who don’t just write but think, challenge, and entertain. You should be someone who doesn’t just consume culture but wants to shape it.

You Have a Strong Sense of Storytelling

A great story isn’t just words on a page. It grips, surprises, and moves the reader. Whether it’s a funny listicle, a pop culture deep dive, or an emotional essay, you know how to structure a compelling narrative that keeps people reading to the last word.

You’re Curious and Opinionated

The best Zikoko stories don’t just report facts; they have a point of view. You’re the type to argue about Gen Z dating struggles, the best Nigerian reality TV moments, or the unspoken rules of living with your parents. You bring fresh angles to everyday conversations.

You Understand Digital Media and Internet Culture

You don’t just scroll through Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram — you analyze them. You know what makes a post go viral, how internet trends evolve, and how to craft content that resonates with an online audience.

You’re Adaptable and Eager to Learn

Zikoko moves fast, and so should you. One day, you might be writing a feature article, the next, a tweet thread, and the next, scripting a video. You’re ready to dive in, experiment, and grow.

You Have a Unique Voice and Sense of Humor

At Zikoko, personality is everything. We don’t do boring. If your writing has flair, wit, and that extra something that makes people want to share it, we’re interested.

You’re Self-Driven but Collaborative

You can take an idea and run with it, but you also know how to take feedback and make your work even better. The best writers know that great content is built in community.

Bonus: If you have multimedia skills (Canva, video editing, etc.) or SEO knowledge, even better.
