HG Hires – Social Media Design Intern

Over the years Homegrown has established itself as a youth media company powered by an online publication, creative agency, an events arm and a talent management vertical. At the core of this lies our team of creative, fun and hard-working individuals that are pulling all the invisible strings that make it all happen. Presenting India’s dynamic youth culture with authenticity, dismantling cultural agendas to create a space that is nonlinear and unshackled from stereotypes and translating these elements into offline socials and events is a lot of balls to juggle.

They will work closely with the editorial team, project and account managers and the events team.
