How Jen and Devin Got Their Jobs At BuzzFeed • Ladylike

[@kellyfurman6309]

The fact that Ned hired Jen, Fred AND Devin 😂

[@lilap3759]

a man with good taste in women

[@bridgette3462]

Lol and now ned quit..

[@shirleywang1973]

And started his own company!!

[@bee4907]

@@bridgette3462 There was great reason behind it.

[@Lynsey17]

I think this has more to do with his former position being with the intern program, not because he just randomly hired the Ladylike cast.

[@sw_xz3]

So basically Ned hires great people lol

[@lilyoonmin1068]

Lmaooo S m o o t h

[@katehamilton5142]

and now they've gone so buzzfeed's at a loss

[@HaveanIcedaymx]

[@shereemeasey1006]

Have a ice day What

[@jenniferchough]

Ned and all the Try Guys left Buzzfeed and created their own company. You can search Try Guys Why We Created Our Own Company on KZbin.

[@alixnight5318]

OMG DEVIN WAS CHO CHANG. As someone who watched a Very Potter Musical (probably like 2-3 times) in middle school, I'm freaking out a little

[@emersynwood180]

CHOOOOO CHANG. I am so in love with CHOOOO CHANG

[@sarahsevak3467]

Alix Night i’ve watched it two times just in the past week lol

[@zozozoz0706]

IM CHO CHANG YALL

[@missybarnes7400]

I didn't realise this until I saw a comment on a song of mamd and someone was like wait Devin is the same Devin that's on Buzzfeed so it just went straight here so see for my self cuz I used to watch Buzzfeed like all the time.

[@annao1307]

Yup, she’s Cho Chang y'all

[@claudiapajuelo]

Ned must be so proud of Ladylike for being what it is

[@chsenmachi9337]

Omg, I recognized that voice from the bootlegs of AVPM. “I’m Cho Chang, y’all!”

[@mr.february2704]

It's not a bootleg its uploaded by the company who made it

[@aaaaaaa-vm1oi]

It's an official recording lmao

[@youcandoanythingwithakazoo555]

Thats not a bootleg

[@jessica-wi2cf]

“I got hired by Ned-“ me: *screams because they mentioned Ned and the try guys*

[@-gf-]

Yeah like they pretend other people who left don't exist anymore so it's cool that buzzfeed may be opening up a bit.

[@jessielynnd13]

Action Cat yea, and they showed an old ladylike clip of with saf in it. That made me happy :)

[@superiron1246]

I love their new channel

[@toyo.saketoba]

Action Cat Maybe because they didn’t do a “Why I we left Buzzfeed” video. Also they didnt ‘reveal’ any inside infos that much and actually ‘respected’ Buzzfeed in a way? IDK

[@emmabug9953]

SAME

[@danteisthebest2265]

Ned Fuller is possibly the most wholesome guy in existence

[@illusionsfan1]

[@kristaburns2063]

TOUR US AROUND BUZZFEED AND SHOW US EVERYTHING IT WOULD BE SOOOOOO COOOOL

[@jocypierce4064]

Krista Burns yes pleeaaasseee

[@leslie7872]

So it'll be easier for me too shoot it up 😏

[@liz2880]

Yup they should do a series on that, it’s extra cool since they have offices in many places of the world

[@moccijiminie3688]

Krista Burns haven’t they left buzzfeed?

[@izzycollins7614]

yasssssssssssssss good idea but it would be long they are switching seat all the time!! lol

[@emerimialombardo9190]

Devin, did anybody at buzzfeed recognize you from AVPM or Starkid? When I first saw you on a BF video, I immediately got excited because I'm a nerd and knew you from Starkid

[@_Fyn_]

I just saw her in a compilation and SCREEEEAAAMED

[@mayceehufstedler3287]

Cho chang

[@megaygirl1804]

Knew her from MAMD first

[@thewillsterpro3051]

I knew her as cho chang since I was seven and like im freaking out cause I love starkid

[@aliteralegg7901]

We stan a starkid queen

[@bubbles3520]

I think it is really important for people to see that Starkid didnt get Devin the job but Devin got the job. I'm glad she spoke about it but I also want to see her connect her past and present. I know she helped celebrate AVPM birthday. She is a talented actress and funny

[@selenacotie7290]

Wait she's an actress

[@emerald4756]

Love that girl. From Bangkok to Ding Dang. She did so much more than just that role though.

[@MilfLvr420]

bubbles3520 that’s a good point. I knew her from Starkid almost a decade ago, but it’s not what got her this job. She worked hard

[@bohemelavie1]

StarKid is an independant theatre company that started as a group os students from Michigan State University. They became rather popular for their Harry Potter spinoff musical which they posted on KZbin (Devin played Cho Chang) and have produced a bunch of other content too.

[@MilfLvr420]

bohemelavie1 are you excited for “the man who didn’t like musicals?”

[@GraveEncountersParanormal]

Jen mentions paying it forward in this video, and it gave me an idea...... I'd love to challenge the entire crew of Buzzfeed to make a video where they try to star a Pay It Forward movement around the city of Los Angeles and see how far it spreads.

[@youngbluntandmizguided]

It’s been a year now, and they still haven’t done it lol

[@katanrocksketches6717]

I DIDNT KNOW DEVIN WAS IN A VERY POTTER MUSICAL AND WHEN SHE SAID IT I WAS LIKE OMG OF COURSE SHE WAS

[@rachelguthro]

Thanks for sharing, Jen and Devin. I completely understand the "hurry up and wait" thing. My entire job search this past year has been like that. I applied for a research job at Buzzfeed, but haven't heard back yet. I would love to work at Buzzfeed, and I think that my Master of Library and Information Science degree would serve me well in the Buzzfeed research department. (Yes, I am shamelessly trying to promote myself, but I really want/need this job!) Thank you Ladylike for making such great content. Your videos always make me smile.

[@formysubscribers]

I never understood “hurry up and wait” until I watched this video. Then I realised it’s exactly how I feel applying for jobs

[@franzii9]

I think that besides experience and degrees, Buzzfeed is a lot about personality. You may not want to post stuff like this in their comments if all you say is that you have the right degree and "need" that job. A lot of people are just like you, so you have to set yourself apart with all the (more or less) unique attributes you have, including your personality and your ambitions etc that could contribute to Buzzfeed.

[@formysubscribers]

Franzi Sparkle oh my post wasn’t why hasn’t Buzzfeed hired me! It was oh that’s the perfect explanation of the highs and lows of applying for jobs.

[@inquisitivekeke1657]

@@formysubscribers I believe they were talking to the original commenter.

[@gigirwashere]

i remember being so sad when dev announced she wouldn’t be at a very starkid reunion because she said she was starting her job at buzzfeed. but now i couldn’t be more proud of what she’s doing 😩

There is a mistake in the title. They spelt Jorb wrong 😂

[@Loafie8]

Thanks Ned for hiring these girls! They're uber talented!

[@fnguyenify]

i'm so glad Devin mentioned Harry Potter Musical! honestly she's why i watched this.... Cho Chang Y'all

[@adrianareyes5131]

do you mean lavender Brown. Bitch she aint Cho Chang.

[@whitneybarber8281]

A) The advice and passion and drive that they share is applicable to a lot of different fields, and it’s really inspiring. I’m applying to med school and am constantly terrified and worried about my future, but this whole video hit a niche in my life that I wasn’t aware I was missing. B) I need to know exactly what highlighter Devin is wearing.

[@tiffany7055]

I can’t believe ned hired both of them 😹😹

[@Mr0011011]

Recruitment videos, yeah. Funny thing is that Ned seemed to be the one who hired all their best people and he's gone, and so are so many of those people - who are getting like 4-5 million views a video and outperforming buzzed like Saf.

I really enjoy videos like these as I just graduated in may and I've been actively applying to entry level entertainment gigs haha while also working part time as a server lol ALSO as an AVPM fan I feel like I have to acknowledge how this video is out on sep. 1st #gottagetbacktohogwarts 😁

[@katierundzieher9630]

I love these videos because even though I’m not looking to go into the content creation industry, I am about to graduate college and enter the job market so it’s very motivating to see people just several years older than me share their success stories

Devon interning at Buzzfeed is me right now. I was insecure seeing I'm still stuck at entry level. But then again, I'm now at a place where I'm most sure than ever with the career path I'm taking (after so many previous misses). Idk. Devon's story made me feel not so alone. I'm quiet glad buzzfeed did this.

That first 30 seconds of Jen and Devin calling it a Jorb and I'm like... girls - Homestar Runner is amazing. We should all follow Coach Z's lead.

[@michC91]

i like these casual ladylike videos. clickbait/trendy and outrageous stuff get views but videos like these are really nice.

[@meganferrell365]

I found this video really discouraging. I went to school and graduated with my degree in social work. While I love my job, I feel like having a typical office job where I am drowning in paper work. Is not for me. I was waning to start a KZbin channel to see if maybe I could start helping people in a different way. I even looked into jobs that buzz feed offered in New York. Lady like has helped build my self esteem, taught me to love my self, and learned positive ways to express my emotions. While I am still at the beginning of my exploration, I was hoping to buy a camera and build a platform. While learning how to edit, along the way. I feel like I am creative and would be able to build a following for buzz feed. But after listening to your credentials, and the steps you took on your journey I guess I have a much longer road ahead of me then I realized.
