Part-Time Test Administrator

Johnson O'Connor Research Foundation, Los Angeles • Part-time • Los Angeles, CA, US • $30 / hour • 4d ago

If you enjoy working with people, numbers, and paperwork, this could be the perfect role for you!

Founded in 1922, The Johnson O’Connor Research Foundation is a national, non-profit research organization that is dedicated to helping people of all ages (from high school to retirement) learn about their innate abilities to discover work that is both satisfying and a natural fit. Most of our clients hear about us through word-of-mouth referral by family, friends, or acquaintances familiar with our program.

We are looking for a local, year-round hire. The job opening is for hourly work ($30/hour) and would typically involve three full days in the office. We are looking for someone who has consistent availability to work from 8:15 a.m to 4:30 p.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.

We are located in downtown Los Angeles near Pershing Square. There is no paid parking available, but we are accessible by public transit, which our staff use.

This position is open to anyone with at minimum a high school degree and preferably a year or more of college education and some work experience. This could be a particularly good fit for psychology undergraduate or graduate students, but people at all stages of life and career are welcome to apply.

In your role here, you will:

Administer aptitude tests using memorized, standardized scripts and hands-on props (moving chips on a board, disassembling blocks, etc.), many of which are timed with a digital scoring program.
Score tests and enter information into the computer quickly and accurately. NOTE: Scoring of tests involves A LOT of quick math (addition, subtraction, multiplication) and paperwork.
Answer phone calls and emails with questions from potential clients, schedule appointments, and process payments

There is no evening/weekend work required. There is no solicitation or cold calling involved. We offer full paid training on administration of our own proprietary battery of aptitude tests. Training typically lasts 4 weeks.

This is an interesting and low-stress job for someone who is a natural fit:

You are good at interacting in-person and one-on-one with a wide range of people aged 14+ in a patient, encouraging, and professional manner.
You are comfortable moving very quickly through testing, scoring, and paperwork within set time-frames.
You feel comfortable memorizing instructional scripts, doing lots of basic math, and focusing while multi-tasking (not easily distracted).
You are conscientious, showing care for both your team members (punctual, reliable) and for quality of services provided (minimizing mistakes, following research protocols).
You enjoy working both independently and collaboratively in a small, close-knit work environment, while getting to meet new clients every day.
You're available to work days around holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's and other school breaks.

You can find more information about the Foundation and aptitude testing on our website: www.jocrf.org

If this job sounds like something you’d love to do, we definitely want to hear from you!

Please, NO phone calls or in-person visits at this time. Interested applicants should send a cover letter (required) and resume via the included link.
