Trainee – Social Content Creator

Location Details
At GoDaddy the future of work looks different for each team. Some teams work in the office full-time, others have a hybrid arrangement (they work remotely some days and in the office some days) and some work entirely remotely.

This is primarily an in‑office position with occasional remote opportunities, and therefore you must live within commuting distance from the Kirkland, WA office. You will work from this office beginning on your first day, and will be expected to work in‑office throughout the program duration. Selected participants will be assigned to work up to 8 hours per day in‑office on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

GoDaddy will not sponsor employment‑based visas (e.g., candidates who now or in the future will require H‑1B sponsorship) for this position at this level.

This position is not eligible to be performed in Alaska, Mississippi, North Dakota, or the Virgin Islands.
