Join our team!
Interested in working on content revolving around PNF-404 and hidden treasures? Pikmin Informer is looking to expand its team by recruiting remote volunteers for a few different positions! Before you take a look at the roles and apply, allow us to provide you with everything you want to know by answering some questions.








Does Pikmin Informer pay?
Pikmin Informer does not offer paid roles — or rather, we do not as of right now. We currently have no source of stable revenue, but we are looking to change that in the future thanks to new affiliate opportunities and our website expansion! Every giveaway and month the website has been active is paid entirely by the site's leading members. We created Pikmin Informer out of pure passion and are working to secure its future. While we do put many hours into Pikmin Informer, along with the rest of our crew, we must reiterate that this is not a full-time job you are applying for, however, it should be noted that other benefits come with joining the team (we will get to that in just a moment though).
One of our goals behind the scenes of Pikmin Informer right now is to implement ads on our website. We would like to do so in a manner that is not disruptive for our audience — in other words, no massive advertising banners and pop-ups that will interfere with what you are reading or three-minute-long ads when you click on any video. As everyday readers, we understand wanting to create a seamless experience on our website and we are going to try our best to make that happen.
What will I be able to gain from working with Pikmin Informer?
Pikmin Informer will offer you an outlet to make friends with other passionate Pikmin fans and learn more about the intricacies of posting on social media, statistics, how search engine optimization [SEO] works, brand partnerships, public relations, outreach, video creation, and much more. If we can't offer you a salary at the moment, we want to at least offer you an education that will help advance your career. Like every great opportunity, we want to help teach you valuable skill sets.
Whether you just want to have fun writing and creating content with some fellow Pikmin enthusiasts or are trying to find some work to put on your resumé, we promise that this is a worthwhile opportunity for all who are interested. Pikmin Informer's staff all come from different lines of work. We want to not only be your friend, but a mentor or teacher.
Additionally, we would like to add that for applicants who are college students, depending on circumstances involving your university's rules regarding internships, we can help you file this opportunity for course credit. If you are interested in working with Pikmin Informer for this reason, please be sure to include this detail in your application.
What will I be able to gain from working with Pikmin Informer?
There is no set schedule or amount of hours you have to work. We are not requiring any of our volunteers to post a specific number of articles or work a specific number of hours every week — you will determine how much you would like to contribute. Once again, this job is for fans who are passionate about Pikmin. Whether you are determined to write 20 news pieces within a single month or just four or five, we welcome you to apply!
