George Blackman, 25, writes scripts for YouTube videos full time. I had never worked in the YouTube space before; my only vaguely related experience was years spent writing comedy with a friend. When I applied to work with Abdaal, this writing experience helped — and it also helped that I wasn't obsessed with him.
