My brother works for a really big YouTuber and he got the job by answering to videos he put up asking for applicants. As far as I know this website is a scam to get people to do the work for free. Tell her to look for videos that are asking for editors, writers, etc.. also check YouTubers websites like Patreon or wherever they might post.
Thanks for the tips. I know she's been looking at some other places as well and she has gotten a few jobs here and there but nothing major. She's gone to school for video editing and she's pretty good at it (fatherly bias kicking in here) but she's always looking for something to help fill in her time.
No problem. My brother went to film school for 4 years and worked on several movies and shows as a PA but it wasn't his thing. He's always made YouTube videos about his interests and finally decided that's where he wants to be. He got incredibly lucky landing this gig but the main reason he did is because of his education background so she has a better shot than most. I'll ask him today if he has any other resources I could share with you. If he does I'll let you know. Good luck!
