Yelp Hiring Brand and Community Ambassadors

Do you love your hometown and know it better than anyone? If you answered yes, then this job could be perfect for you. The company is currently looking for city ambassadors in multiple cities across the nation. International positions are available as well. Let’s take a better look at what these jobs involve to see if they are right for you.

What is Yelp?

Yelp is a social networking site that lets users rate businesses and post reviews. When you visit a new restaurant and the service is fantastic, along with the food, Yelp allows you to share your experience with others in the same area. On the flip side, users can also post negative reviews and bad experiences. Social media can make or break a business and it doesn’t take long to get a certain reputation.

Yelp is a great tool for people who are new to a location so they know exactly what businesses to give their time and money to, and which ones to stay away from. This social networking site makes the sign up process simple and it only takes a few minutes. Once you are signed up, you can simply follow other users to see their reviews or you can opt to post your own reviews. Either way you gain valuable information about any business in your town.

What Is a Yelp Ambassador?

Now that we know exactly how Yelp works, let’s explore what an Ambassador actually does. Ambassadors need to be an on the go type person. You won’t be able to recommend restaurants and businesses if you don’t use them yourself. Yelp ambassadors need to serve as a social connector by hosting events and cooperating with local organizations.

Yelp ambassadors do need to have strong writing skills and be superb at event planning, marketing and public relations. The positions require an average of 10 to 15 hours per week and the contracts are for one year. I hate to state the obvious but a strong Wi Fi connection is required due to the fact that all of your work is online.

Pros and Cons

A job with Yelp offers flexible hours which for most people is perfect to compliment a busy lifestyle. According to reviews Ambassador pay can range from ten to sixteen dollars an hour and they provide excellent health benefits for full-time positions.
Santa Barbara, California; Gainesville, Florida; South Bend, Indiana; Jackson, Mississippi; Columbia, Missouri; Eugene and Bend, Oregon; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and Galveston County, Texas are the cities that they are currently looking to hire ambassadors. If you live in one of the nine places listed above and want to represent Yelp in your city get online and apply.

Final Thoughts

Overall if you are looking for a way to make some extra cash picking up a part-time job at Yelp is definitely a great position to consider. Social butterflies would thrive as an Ambassador. Keeping up with the latest hot spot in town or always posting on social media about a great experience is exactly what they are looking for.
