Undergrads: come work for English!
The Department of English is seeking undergraduate student workers to join two teams: Front Desk/Department Ambassadors and the Digital Media Project. Multiple positions are open on each team, and while we typically only hire students into a single team, you’re welcome to apply to both..
All positions are in-person during the academic year (Autumn through Spring). Ideally, candidates will start training in late July/early August, but for both teams we're open to remote/virtual training options if you won't be in the Columbus area yet.
Applications are accepted through Sunday, June 29 at 11:59 pm. Virtual interviews will take place in July.

Members of the front desk/department ambassador team are the public face of the department.
