Such a great opportunity……..!
Just patiently waiting for the day you decide to hire for a “food tester” position…I know it’d be hard work, but someone’s gotta try all that food you’re making, right? :D
Hi!
I have my application ready to send and noticed there were two email addresses in the post. I was wondering if we should send an email to both [email protected] and [email protected]? or just [email protected]?
I had such a great time making the demo video, and can’t wait to share it! This is such a wonderful opportunity, so I want to make sure to send it to the right place.
Sorry for the silly question! I figured it all out. I’m new to posting through YouTube, I usually use Vimeo. I hope you received my application and video, looking forward to (hopefully) hear back! *fingers crossed*
Hi Angela,
Well I must be having the worse tech luck. I purchased the “Detox Bundle” in the app but the recipes will not load to my phone. When I try to load the recipes I get messages that say the bundle has already been purchased and the recipes will be restored but they never actually load. I tried leaving this information on the App page, but I’m not sure my message actually went through. I use an Iphone 4S.
Yay! So glad to hear that you’re hiring, I am obsessed with the Oh She glows cookbook and website. Will be preparing my application video this weekend :)

We look forward to receiving it, Immy!
Wow I just noticed the deadline extension to the 27th. Our team is working to get our submission ready for this Friday but it’s nice to know we have some breathing room. This has been such a fun project to work on. Thank you for putting it out there.
I’m glad you’ve been having fun with it, Diana! Thanks in advance for your application.
Hi Angela!
I too was quite excited to see this posting. I’m working on my submission and just had a quick question- are you wanting only overhead shots? Or can I mix in some close-ups from other angles for some variety? Big thank you for all the inspiration over the years, and I look forward to submitting my application.
Hi Cassie, Thanks so much for your interest in the position. Though our original concept was for a video featuring overhead shots until the final close-up of the finished product at the end, please feel free to take some creative license with the video and add some variety as you see fit. We look forward to receiving your application!
Wow! I am so glad I came across this in time and that you guys changed the deadline. I am working on my application now. Thanks for sharing this opportunity!
Oh, I’m happy you saw this in time, Alexandra! We look forward to receiving your application. :)
Found this job posting on your website a bit last minute – Excited to get you my submission none-the-less. I’m a freelance video producer and photographer in Toronto. My sister is a holistic nutritionist and runs her own food blog – she has gotten me enthusiastic about food styling. Can’t wait to send you my creation :)
Thanks for your application, Shayna! We look forward to reviewing it.
Hi Angela,
I just came across this now, 20 minutes after the deadline! Is there any possibility of it being pushed back again? What an incredible opportunity!
Hi Angela!
I submitted my application about two weeks ago! I couldn’t be more excited to hear back from you, even if it’s just with some feedback. Looking forward to seeing the video you choose. :)
I have a lot of marketing and advertising experience and education dealing with social media. If you need anyone in these arwas please reach out to me.
Hi Gigi, Thanks for dropping us a line! We’re not currently hiring, but if that changes, I’ll be sure to share the news on here. :)
