StoryCorps Facilitator

"StoryCorps is seeking enthusiastic and dedicated facilitators for a yearlong commitment...Facilitators are the field workers of StoryCorps. Part anthropologist, part folklorist, they capture stories of everyday people in order to record and archive the diverse voices of America. They: welcome participants to the interview and guide them through the experience; handle all technical aspects of making the recordings; catalogue interviews for the Library of Congress; attend weekly facilitator team meetings; perform minor maintenance and cleaning of the StoryBooths and MobileBooths; identify and edit tape from interviews to be considered for broadcast...The pay rate is $14/hour in New York. While on mobile, facilitators are full-time salaried employees at a comparable rate and are also provided accommodations."
