UberCon XIV - New Jersey : Volunteer Positions

Volunteers are needed to help run UberCon XIV, in addition to the people actually running games. All volunteers will have a credit card/check hold placed on their account until after the event. Verification forms will be provided to all volunteers. As long as your verification form is validated by a supervisor by the end of the convention, your credit card/check hold will be released. However, if we have not received a validated form by the end of the convention, you will be charged for the full admission price.Volunteers will be accepted at the con under the same deferred billing conditions, but we appreciate volunteers who sign up early, as this assists our advanced staff planning efforts.

Fill out our very short volunteer sign-up form to volunteer for a position. If you would like to GM/run a game, please visit our GM Signup Form. Feel free to e-mail con management at events@ubercon.com with questions.

Not all of the following positions are available or necessary for every event. Specific help wanted ads for can be found in our forum's volunteering section.

Registration requires minimal spelling and typing skills. People will be coming to you who are pre-registered as well as those who need to register. This is a troubleshooting position. You may be required to help other volunteer departments, do manual labor, or answer guest questions. This is a very active position requiring people and communication skills.

Security Staff Guest Liasons

Monitoring for people who have crashed the party, working with other security staff, protecting our game cache and prize closet, watching for unlawful activity, and being visible so that people feel safe. This requires being on your feet. This also requires good people and communication skills. This is a one-on-one position with one of our guests. The job can be very simple but it is a full time weekend position. A Liason's job is to simply help the guest organize and look after their best interests at the con.
