HR Assistant

OUR NATIONAL CONVERSATION is a new kind of media outlet. We're nonpartisan, we believe in truth, we're all very civil, we just want to solve problems. Republicans, Democrats, Independents -- all are welcome here.

We are largely run by student interns, and we now want "more adults in the room." We seek 3-4 volunteers with real HR experience. You will help us manage our HR department, with the help of a handful of interns. You will mentor them; they will learn from you.

HR Assistant

• Attends meetings and communicates with team throughout the week using Slack, zoom, email, Google Drive
• Leads recruiting, onboarding and offboarding process
• Possesses experience in human resources tasks/duties
• Resolves minor inquiries from student team leaders
• Can commit to 1 year of volunteer work (5-8 hours per week)

Our HR team holds a standing meeting every Friday at noon PST (3 p.m. EST), usually around 40 minutes. You will need to be able to attend that meeting at that time if you want to pursue this. You will get outstanding experience -- plus you'll be doing something good for America.

If we raise money, our intent is to start paying people, at least on a part-time basis, so this could turn into something more. Our ability to raise money will largely be a function of how good a job we're doing, so everyone's contribution matters. We think, with one big push, 2026 could be our breakout year.
