Proctor Positions

The CBTF hires students as proctors each fall and spring semester. You can look for the job posting on the Virtual Job Board in July and November. You will hear back from us if you are selected for an interview.

Proctors are required to be available to work 6 hours/week.  There are opportunities to pick up more hours if you are interested.

Proctors are responsible for:

• monitoring test-takers to ensure a fair testing environment
• checking-in test takers
• addressing student concerns during exams
• resolving immediate issues with exams or equipment
• ensuring that students remain calm if stressful situations arise 
• learning and enforcing the policies and procedures of the CBTF
• attending staff meetings for training and updates

Proctors must: 

• have a strong sense of integrity
• be reliable, punctual, and engaged
• demonstrate maturity
• be a responsible authority figure 
• have keen attention to detail 
• have the ability to remain calm in stressful situations and while addressing student concerns
• have good interpersonal and written communication skills

What to Expect After Applying

Unfortunately, you may not hear back from us, and not because you aren't a good applicant. When we hire, we are usually looking for 10-25 proctors. We routinely get well over 100 applicants each time we post the position. As you can imagine, this is an overwhelming number to sift through, and we can't possibly interview everyone who applies, even if we'd like to! So, please don't feel discouraged if we don't contact you for an interview. It's tough to get hired, and oftentimes you just have to keep trying.
