Such a great opportunity!
I have been a fan for years and I just left my position at a creative agency.
Can’t wait to get started on my application!
I look forward to receiving it, Brittany!
Yay for videos coming up! I’m a little sad you won’t be cooking/presenting the videos yourself but I’m sure they will still be awesome. I remember your blondie/brownie video from way back when and it was so much fun :) Good luck on the hiring process!!
That’s so fun you remember my blondie video from way back! It was a blast. We definitely haven’t ruled out those types of videos for the future. :)
So excited about this opening Angela! I would love to work with you guys on video creation- I love the Oh She Glows brand and what you guys have created for the plant-based community. I’ll be applying!! :)
Thanks for your interest, Lauren. I look forward to receiving your application!
Looking forward to see your videos! They will definitely be a hit on social media! All the best!
“Submit a recipe video 30 to 60 seconds in length (1080×1080 pixels)” Did you mean 1080×720 or 1920×1080?
Hi Adam, Thanks for your question! 1080×1080 would be great as we’d like to use square format for social media.
Such an inspiration<3
Best of luck Angela and we look forward to more gorgeous recipes of yours!!
Totally agree! It never ceases to amaze me when bloggers hire out but I think it’s pretty darn cool. Awesome and congrats on this new venture!!!!
Thanks so much for the kind words and support, Anne!
What an incredible opportunity! I wish my video experience was a bit more robust… Any chance you’d like to add another still photographer to the team as well? :)
Hi Angela!
I am interested in applying for this position, but would like to know more about what you’re looking for before I do. Unfortunately, I don’t have an iPad or iPhone so I cannot access your app or your videos. Is there any other way you can post/share a video to provide a better idea of what you’d like to see? Thank you! Excited at the possibility of joining the team!
Hi Jennifer, Thanks so much for your interest in the position! To get a better idea of the aesthetic we’re going for, you can check out this link to the app’s page in the Apple Store: if you scroll down the page a bit, it provides a few screenshots that should give a good sense of the style we’d like the videos to have. There’s also this blog post, where you can see a video trailer for the app. I hope those links help a bit, and please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any more follow-up questions!
This is so exciting! Congrats on trying something new … I always see friends sharing cooking videos online but they are usually so unhealthy! I can’t wait to share some Oh She Glows recipes! I feel like so many people that wouldn’t otherwise try vegan food will be likely to give it a try once they see how it’s made … and how tasty the finished dishes look!
Thank you, Shauna! I’m beyond excited for this, and it’s wonderful to see my readers are enthusiastic about the idea, too. :)
So very excited for this opportunity, with my true passion and love for plant based diet and the culinary world. I will most definitely apply. Thank you so very much for this exciting opportunity !!! Yeh!!!!!
Looking forward to receiving your application, Jenn! Thanks so much for your interest.
I just received this from a friend of mine. Local Toronto video producer with 12 years national tv experience. Would love to take this on! Will send you an application shortly.
Thanks for your interest, Stephan! We look forward to receiving your application.
Ah! Congratulations on the expansion Angela! That’s so exciting. Can’t wait to see the upcoming videos :)
Such a fabulous opportunity, Angela! I am so excited about the chance to work on videos for amazing plant-based recipes, for a food author and blogger I have been inspired by forever. I am based in Toronto and currently working on my application! :)
You’re too sweet, Emma! Thanks so much for your interest in the position, and we look forward to receiving your application.
I am very excited about this opportunity.
I hope I am not to late to apply!
Stay tuned!
Not too late at all, Stephanie! We’re accepting applications until January 20th. :)
My wife and I love your blog! Are you looking for a videographer in your area or could I be living half way around the world from you? (Just thinking with regards to interviews and filming etc.) ;)
Hi Ed, This is a remote position, so although it’s a bonus if you’re in the Greater Toronto Area as it’s always great to be able to meet in person, it’s not necessary!
Wow, I’m so jealous–I would love to join your team, but I have no skills in that area :-) Happy for you that your business is growing, though!
Amazing! Hey love your thoughts about being Vegan. checkout my new website www.veganonthego.ca
Wow, awesome opportunity! I love that you’re willing to work with someone who is remote, but are you able to hire someone who is not Canadian? I’m guessing you couldn’t employ a U.S. citizen, but it’s worth an ask! Cheers.
Hi Whitney, Thanks so much for your interest in the position! We’re open to employing someone from outside Canada, so if you feel this job is a good fit for you, please do consider applying. :)
Hi Angela,
Firstly, I want to thank you for sharing your amazing talents and recipes with me for all these years. I have watched you have your babes as I have had mine (we were pregnant both times together!) and rave about your recipes and extremely scrumptious/nutritious food to all my friends.
I’m the foodie and cook and my husband is the videographer/app developer/graphic designer. Would you accept a husband and wife team? I would be so blessed to be able to work on your team while I do my #1 job of being a stay-at-home to my girls.
Hi Allison, Yes, we’re totally open to hiring a husband-wife team! If you decide to apply, we’d love to hear from you.
Hello! I am interested in making these videos and love plant based cuisine, but not sure what the minimum age is! I am 15.
