Frequently Asked Questions

Is this paid?

This is an unpaid internship/contribution opportunity focused on building your portfolio and skills. However, top performers receive official roles, recommendation letters, and priority access to paid opportunities and events. The value is in the portfolio, bylines, mentorship, and networking opportunities.

What happens after 90 days?

After the 90-day period, we conduct a performance review. The top 5–10 performers are retained with official roles, recommendation letters, and continued writing opportunities. Others may continue as occasional contributors or use their portfolio and experience for other opportunities.

Will I get bylines?

Yes! All published articles include your byline, and you'll be featured on the TechBlit Authors Portal. This gives you verified, professional writing credits for your portfolio.

Do I need experience?

No prior professional writing experience is required. We're looking for people with basic writing skills, a willingness to learn, and an interest in tech, startups, or storytelling. Our editorial team will provide guidance and feedback to help you improve.
