Student Assistant – Video, AI & Social Media

At Nova Cognitus we believe that video will become an increasingly important part of how companies communicate and market themselves. Therefore we are looking for a student assistant who can help build our video production and set the standard for the content we produce.

We are not looking for someone who wants to learn to edit video.

We are looking for someone who already has documented experience producing videos for TikTok, Facebook and YouTube – and who knows why some videos work while others don't.

Role

You will be responsible for developing and producing video content from idea to finished video.

It includes, among other things

• Development of ideas and video formats.
• Editing video for TikTok, Facebook and YouTube.
• Development of campaigns and content series.
• Use of AI tools for research, idea development, editing, graphics, audio and subtitles.
• Adapting content to the individual platforms.
• Ongoing optimization of videos based on performance and learnings.

You will have great freedom to shape both the content and the way we work with video.

We are looking for someone who knows what works

You don't just follow developments on social media.

You understand it.

You know how the first few seconds determine whether a video is watched.

You know how stories are built so the viewer stays engaged.

You know which formats work on TikTok, which work on Facebook, and why YouTube requires something different.

You can explain your creative choices – not just make them.

We are looking for someone who can both produce content and understand why it performs.

We imagine that you

• Are a student in a higher education program.
• Have extensive practical experience with video editing.
• Have produced content for TikTok, Facebook or YouTube.
• Have worked with campaigns or content that has created measurable results.
• Know the latest AI tools and actively use them in your work.
• Can work independently and take responsibility for the entire production.
• Have a sense for both quality, detail and pace.

It’s an advantage if you work in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, CapCut or similar – but the most important is the quality of what you produce.

Experience weighs more than education

We are less interested in what you study.

We are much more interested in what you have already done.

If you can document that you have produced videos or campaigns that have generated results, we would much rather see them than read a long application.

With us you get

• Great freedom and responsibility.
• Opportunity to help build our video production.
• Access to the latest AI tools.
• Skilled colleagues and a high level of ambition.
• Opportunity to develop quickly and gain significant influence on the content we produce.

The job is probably not for you if

• You are just starting to learn video editing.
• You have not produced content for social media before.
• You are not interested in why content performs.
• You do not closely follow developments on TikTok, Facebook and YouTube.
• You do not use AI as a natural part of your workflow.

Application

We assess you primarily on what you have done – not on a traditional application.

Therefore send

• Your CV.
• Any transcripts from your education.
• Links to videos, campaigns or profiles you have produced yourself or had a significant role in.
• A short description of the video or campaign you are most proud of. Tell what the goal was, what role you had, why you think it succeeded, and what you learned along the way. You may not use AI to create this description
