1. Food is the focus.
Become a part of a community that not only loves food but wants to share that love with other members and readers worldwide.
2. NYC is the greatest food city in America.
Aside from having the best pizza, New York City is home to a plethora of amazingly unique eats from cultures allover the world. Step out of your culinary comfort zone and taste all that this amazing city has to offer.
3. Explore and create content of your choosing.
Spoon focuses on creating content that is not only interesting to you but also important to you. Subjects ranges from where-to and how-to recipes and reviews, to international lifestyle and news. The spectrum is wide. It is up to you to create killer content that readers love and you are proud of.
4. Spoon HQ is only a subway ride away.
Spoon HQ is located right in midtown, and their team is available to help in any way possible. It is also a unique opportunity to see the actual work that each member on the team contributes day in and day out.
5. Connect with renowned foodies.
Social media has had and continues to have significant influence on food culture, especially in large cities. Being in New York affords the opportunity to connect with a massive pool of foodies driving such influence.
6. Prepare yourself for life after undergraduate.
Writing allows you the unique opportunity to be published and reach readers all over the world. Not only does experience working with Spoon look good on your resume, it transforms the way you research and explore information.

Free pizza at school events gets boring after a while, even for pizza lovers. In a group of foodies who create recipes (like these dark chocolate coconut bars sent from heaven), you will not be disappointed with the creativity of food and drink options you find available to you.
