Hello! Itโs us! Weโre looking for moderators for our November 2015 events! Iโm a Scientist and Iโm an Engineer are award-winning online events allowing students (from 9 โ 18) to interact with real live scientists and engineers. Weโre looking for 2 moderators to work on the next event which will run from the 9th to the 20th November 2015. We will also be running Iโm a Scientist and Iโm an Engineer in Ireland.
Your key responsibilities will be:
- checking and approving questions
- adding appropriate keywords and tags
- logging and keeping track of questions, comments and dialogue
- checking the site for errors and inappropriate content and usernames
- moderating live chats
- helping to run the site
Itโs actually a lot of fun as the students (and scientists) are quick and funny and full of energy. And hey, promoting science engagement is a good thing, am I right?!
What weโd like from you..
- You should be bright, thoughtful, pick stuff up easily, ideally with an interest in science engagement.
- Youโll have great attention to detail (THIS IS IMPORTANT)
- You enjoy being online, perhaps have experience in an online community.
- The site is all built on WordPress, so if youโve used that the techy stuff will be pretty familiar.
- Youโd be working from home, so you must also have broadband which doesnโt die every 10 minutes.
Extra bonus things weโd like, but arenโt hugely important..
- A sense of humor
- The ability to multitask
- Interested in discussing your lunch
Please send a CV and short covering letter ASAP (by Monday 26th October 2015), to Emily at emily@gallomanor.com, telling us why you think youโd be a good moderator.
- Dates: 9th โ 20th November (Monday โ Friday)
- Hours: 37.5/week, 08.30-16.00 GMT
- Pay: ยฃ8/hr
