Apply to canvass

This is 1099 independent-contractor work, not W-2 employment. Paid per GPS-verified door. Earnings vary and are not guaranteed.

The work

What to expect on the doors

No selling. No convincing anyone how to vote. Just a brief, friendly survey at the door, recorded in the campaign's software. Complete every survey question and record responses accurately when a resident participates. Choose your own schedule. Travel and lodging support may be available for some out-of-state assignments; details are confirmed in writing before you accept.

Each group of canvassers knocking a packet together must include at least one person who can conduct the survey in English and Spanish. Bilingual canvassers are encouraged to apply; you do not need to be bilingual to apply.
