After Effects or motion graphics a plus\nA heavy user of short dramas or vertical video who understands hooks and beat-matching, and can explain why an ad creative makes people stop\nCurious about data: willing to look at CTR and CPI and edit accordingly, not just for looks\nAble to read and write English subtitles; familiarity with overseas social ad guidelines is a plus\nFamiliarity with AI editing, subtitle and voice tools is a plus\nCPRA Privacy Notice for California Candidates","description_format":"text","description_chars":3296,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Digital Media","Web Portals"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-16T01:07:25Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":15,"expected_fill_days":59,"reasons":["conf:2","velocity","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":60000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/newsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/newsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-31T12:26:58Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":19236,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":11842},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=11842"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fnewsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fnewsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fnewsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/newsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fnewsbreak-short-drama-creative-editor-intern-2"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":2662189}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"newsbreak.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":2662189},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people);
