Thanks Becca! I look forward to hearing from you. :)
Hi Angela, congrats on your teams growth! I will be applying in the next day or two. Thanks for the opportunity!
Thank you, Erica – I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
How exciting! Just applied. :] It’s my dream job.
Thank you for applying, Tracy! :)

So excited to see this opportunity come across! Would love to support you and will send in the application shortly!
I look forward to hearing from you, Chrissy! :)
Just emailed you! <3
Ah, yes! I saw this post on your Instagram, and am definitely going to apply. I absolutely adore everything about Oh She Glows and am so grateful for you guys. Without your recipes, I think it would be much harder to be vegan (AND to keep my fiancé a happy vegan too). Congrats on the new cookbook and growth!
Thanks so much for the kind words, Alyssa! I look forward to hearing from you. :)
Can high school/college students apply? I have much experience in this field.
How will we know what it is your doing vs someone else pretending to be you? Are ur Facebook posts you writing it? Or is it someone you hired? Part of what I love about your site is the connection you feel with the person behind the words. When it’s someone pretending to be you that is responding to comments and putting up posts, that connection isn’t there? What are u delegating to other people and what are you retaining responsibility for?
Congrats on this step! Best of luck – I’m sure you’ll have a lot of interest!
Definitely not qualified for this position, but please let me know when you’re hiring for a “taste all of Angela’s new recipe” specialist and I will surely apply. I have references.
Hahaha — duly noted! ;)
If there are two positions for a taster I’m going to apply with Tiffany27!
Hi Angela,
This is amazing news! Congratulations! I am so excited to say I have been following you for years and your blog has inspired me to start my own blog. I would be honored if you checked it out and if you had any feedback I would love to hear it! You are such an inspiration to me.

Sincerely
Hannah
Thanks so much for the kind words, Hannah. I’ll have to check your blog out sometime! Good luck with everything. :)
Hi, This is so exciting, congrats on all of your success!
I am most definitely going to be applying.
A note… the date says July 27, 2015 I am hoping this is a typo since I would love to be a part of your team and continued growth.
Love & Light,
Korri
Thanks so much for pointing that out, Korri! Haha–halfway through 2016 and I’m still getting used to the fact we’re in a new year. ;)
Oh Angela… I am so happy to hear about your growth. I have been with you since the beginning and you have inspired me in so many ways. I don’t think I’d be able to do this role in particular but I would give anything to be a part of this inspiring journey. Please keep us posted if you have any other openings – and it’s also pretty amazing that you posted to your blog. Thank you for all that you’ve done for me, for us.
Thanks so much for the sweet words, Erin! If we decide to expand our team even further in the future, I’ll be sure to post the listing to the blog and let you all know. :)
Awesome! You’ve been a great inspiration for our family in our plant-based journey. Those veggie burgers with the sunflower seeds…the best!
I have zero qualifications and will definitely not be applying! Just wanted to say that having a newborn and toddler, it will be a relief for you and Eric to have the details taken care of by a social media staffer so you can put all you want to into your family and focus on the personal parts of your blog that we readers all love so much.
My husband always says to take care of the golden goose…it isn’t always easy to let go and give details to someone else, but you will need your rest and your time! You’ll be able to give even more to your followers and follow your dreams for your business. :)
This is so great, Angela. Congrats and thank you for sharing :) I will definitely apply! In the meantime, you can check out my new healthy lifestyle and food blog: Your Whole You
That’s so awesome to see how Oh She Glows keeps growing and growing! I am definitely going to apply! I would welcome such an amazing opportunity to be part of a powerful team in health and nutrition :) All the best on your continued success!
Thanks for the kind words, Brandy! I’m looking forward to receiving your application.
Angela!
I received this wonderful opportunity and will be applying today! Congratulations on your continued growth!
Beth
Thanks, Beth! I look forward to hearing from you.
Truly though, what an inspiration it would be to work for you! This position is me to a T!! Resume on it’s way :)
-Kaili
Aw, thanks you. I look forward to receiving it, Kaili!
So excited for the opportunity to apply for this amazing position! I will be working on my resumel and get it to you in the next couple of days! I really hope it’s a typo above and I have until July 27th 2016 not 2015 :) Have a great day and thank you for your amazing cookbook and blog!
Hey Jen, thanks! I look forward to receiving your application. (And yes… I briefly time travelled, there! heh)
Man, so bummed I missed the cut! I wrote down the 29th! I will definitely keep my eyes peeled for the next opportunity…hopefully soon!
