BuzzFeed.com College Creator Program

Company Information

A paid summer creator program for college students who want to make content for the internet that millions of people actually see. You won't get course credit, and there are no set hours. You're a BuzzFeed contributor who also gets mentorship, community, and office access. Think of it as a creative residency with a paycheck.

Qualifications

• Currently enrolled in an accredited college or university (rising sophomores through seniors)
• Comfortable using AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) or excited to learn
• Chronically online in a good way — you understand what makes people click, share, and engage
• Self-motivated; nobody's going to chase you to hit a quota, but the opportunity is there if you want it
• Available for the summer program window (roughly June–August 2026)

Duties

• Use BuzzFeed's AI content tools to pitch, create, and publish posts across quizzes, lists, and trending content
• Work alongside our editorial team
• Earn money for every piece you publish: Every post you publish that makes it through our editorial process earns you money (up to $600/week)
