Job Requirements

Becoming a GO Team Organizer is as easy as submitting an application and talking to one of our staff.  We’re actively seeking new talent, and we value each GO Team Organizer’s unique combination of skills, interests, and abilities.

How do you know if you’ll be a successful GO Team Member?  Here’s what we’re looking for:

  • Verbal communications skills.  Do you enjoy talking to people?  Are you the type to strike up a conversation with others? 
  • Basic computer skills.  If you’re comfortable getting on the Internet or using email, you have the abilities we require.  Our system isn’t complex, and we provide all the training you need.
  • A willingness to learn.  You don’t have to know a lot about public affairs when you join our network, but you do need to have an interest in finding out more.  
  • MOTIVATION.  In our experience, your enthusiasm makes all the difference.  More than anything, we are seeking individuals who want to be successful—no matter what drives them!
