CALGARY JOBS & SUMMER JOBS

Hiring: Face to Face Interviewers
Organization: Future Majority
Location: Calgary, Alberta

Are you looking for a fun way to make a difference this summer?

We’re Future Majority, a national youth-focused non-partisan non-profit which works to understand and elevate the issues that matter to young people. This summer, we’re conducting a massive survey to learn about the priorities of Millennials and Gen Zers.

This project is an exciting opportunity to live your values and be part of something transformative! Too often, young people aren’t invited into the conversation, and that’s a shame - youth care deeply and have amazing and creative solutions to the problems we face as a society. When our voices are heard, everyone benefits.

To learn about young Albertans, our Interviewers will be collecting thousands of survey answers. We’ll be exploring busy streets throughout the city, knocking on doors, hanging out by transit stops, and enjoying the sunshine at festivals. The data you collect will help to shape our messaging and our priorities, and ultimately make sure that youth voices and issues get heard!

Our Interviewers are friendly, cheerful, and excited to have conversations that matter. If that’s you, apply now!
