Careers at Select Star Media Group

We proudly offer our full-time US employees a robust benefits offering, including:

Fully paid medical insurance

For employees in our New York Office, we cover 100% of the premiums for our standard level of medical insurance plan, including coverage for domestic partners, spouses, and families. Outside of New York, we cover the great majority of coverage for all groups.

Life insurance and short/long term disability insurance is 100% covered by Select Star. Employees can choose to purchase dental, vision or supplemental life/disability insurance.

Time off when you need it — and a sabbatical after four years.

PTO, Personal Day, Sick Days? Doesn't matter: we don't formally track time off — take time off when you need it in consultation with your Manager.

After four years of continuous employment, employees are eligible for a sabbatical — one month paid time off, in addition to whatever time off you'd otherwise take that year.

401k with 3% contribution

We'll help you save for the future with a 401k plan. And after one year, we'll contribute 3% of your entire compensation, on top of any contributions you make.

Brand new gorgeous Bushwick office with weekly breakfast and lunch and regular staff events

We provide breakfast and lunch to all staff in the New York office once a week.

Stay Healthy

We’ll help you stay healthy by subsidizing a significant amount of your Equinox or New York Sports Club membership. Not a member of Equinox or NYSC? We’ll reimburse you up to $50 per month for a gym or yoga studio of your choice.

Cell Phone Reimbursement

We reimburse every employee for their cell phone plan, up to $80 per month.

Commuter Benefits Program

Have money deducted directly from your pay check on a pre-tax basis (saving you 25% to 40%, depending on your tax rate), which you can use for public transit and parking costs.

Referral Bonus

Many of our best employees come from referrals. Refer a friend to an open position and get $1,500 after 90 days.
