🔍 Research Before Applying

To stand out, make sure you've researched:

  • → Read Sistema.bio’s impact reports to understand their key metrics (e.g., tons of CO2 reduced, number of farmers reached).
  • → Explore their current social media channels (Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube) to analyze their visual style and identify gaps you could fill.
  • → Look up their product page for the biodigester and biofertilizer to understand the technology you’ll be communicating.
  • → Review any existing educational materials (if available) to see how they currently explain complex topics to farmers.

💬 Prepare for These Interview Topics

Based on this role, you may be asked about:

1 How would you design a social media campaign to explain how a biodigester works to a farmer with limited technical background?
2 Describe a time you had to create visual content under a tight deadline. How did you prioritize and manage your time?
3 How do you ensure brand consistency across different formats (Instagram, landing pages, printed materials) when working remotely?
4 Can you walk us through your experience with WordPress? How would you optimize a landing page for user engagement?
5 What sustainable design practices do you incorporate (e.g., reducing file sizes, using eco-friendly colors)?

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Submitting a generic portfolio without any work related to sustainability, agriculture, or educational content—tailor it to the role.
  • Ignoring the language requirement: even if your English is functional, show you can write in both languages (e.g., bilingual portfolio captions).
  • Overlooking remote work etiquette: don’t mention needing constant supervision or rigid hours; emphasize flexibility and self-motivation.
