SCAT Job Openings Paid Signature Gatherers: Seattle Citizens Against the Tunnel (SCAT) is looking to enlist energetic and motivated signature gathers for the I-101 Stop the Tunnel initiative. Positions are open now.
Work as an independent contractor gathering signatures to qualify the initiative for the ballot. Applicants must be friendly, outgoing, and comfortable working with the public. There will be no fundraising involved. Work as many hours as you like, any day of the week, and at any location around Seattle.
Pay Example - individual is to be paid $10.00 per hour; if they gather 0 to 8 signatures they are paid $10.00 per hour; However, if a person gets 9 signatures in an hour, they will be compensated at the rate of $10.00 per hour plus $1.25 for the signature that is in excess of 10 signatures per hour; and so on - $10.00 + $2.50 (2 signatures over 8), $12 + $3.75 (3 signatures over 8), etc.
Orientation sessions for new signature gatherers will be held every Tuesday and Thursday at 11:30 am at the Ballard Neighborhood Service Center. Address: 5604 22nd Ave NW.
Please note also: Applicants must be friendly, outgoing, and comfortable working with the public. There will be no fundraising Please note also: It is important to qualify possible signers' of the petition by asking them, "Are you a registered Seattle voter?"; gatherers who have a less than 80% rate of “good signatures”, those that are from registered Seattle voters, will not be retained for on-going work, this policy is to ensure that gatherers do not indiscriminately fill up petitions with signatures from non-voters; we understand that people however do not always respond accurately, however at the same time it is important to still make the inquiry and work to ensure that voters predominately are who sign the petitions.
To apply: Fill out the form at http://www.scatnow.com/index_files/JobsatSCAT.htm and submit it - then go to http://www.scatnow.com/index_files/SCATSigGatherers.htm and learn more about the position SCAT is offering.
