Team applications have CLOSED, for now.

We’ve filled these positions, but be on the lookout for more openings in the near future!

Who are we looking for?

We’re seeking young, passionate individuals to help us promote the humanities. If that sounds like you, we’d love to see you apply!

Currently, we have three open positions; one (1) for Outreach & Marketing and two (2) for Submission Evaluators. As we are a nonprofit, both are unpaid, voluntary positions. See below for more information.

What do these roles do?

Outreach & Marketing (~3 hours/week):

1 opening

• Create visuals for and manage the Homer Humanities Instagram
• Search for and implement alternative outreach streams beyond social media
• If possible, hang up physical posters at local libraries, bookstores, and art stores
• Communicate with schools, teachers, administrations, and professors whenever needed (to spread the competition or to drive interest)

Submission Evaluators (~1 hour/week):

2 openings

Note: One hour a week is an estimated average; there will be a large influx of submissions near the end of each competition cycle.

• Filter submissions through the first screening via our rubric
• Provide quality, individualized comments and thoughtful evaluation
• Grade in a timely manner; expect to spend 10-15 minutes per submission

Who’s eligible?

We’re looking for students in middle school, high school, and college. If you’re eligible for our competition, you’re eligible for these roles!

If you’re applying as a submission evaluator, you must have submitted to the competition at least once, in either category. If you’re apply as outreach, we prefer people with previous experience.

You may only apply for one position.

How do I apply?

Just like our competition, we’ll do a two-stage screening process for prospective team members. The short online application (see below) is the first step. If we think you’re an excellent candidate, we will invite you to a short, informal interview.
