Bilingual Recruiter (Arabic)
Remote - Remote - Part Time to Full Time
Who We Are
The Outreach Team is a field firm specializing in face-to-face canvassing operations. We work on behalf of amazing progressive partners to win important campaigns and make lasting social change. Our goal is to consistently raise the overall level of campaign work across platforms by thinking holistically about our staff, campaigns, and clients. In the last two campaign cycles, we've knocked on 4 million doors across more than a dozen states, registered over 100,000 voters, provided quality control services for 1.5 million voter registrations, and qualified a half dozen ballot initiatives.
The Role
We are currently seeking Bilingual Remote Recruiters to join our team. We are specifically looking for speakers who are fluent in Arabic. The recruitment team's goal is to build energetic and effective teams who will motivate communities to get involved in our democracy and the issues that matter to them. The recruitment team oversees full-cycle recruitment and plays a crucial role in finding, hiring, and onboarding the right people for this vital work. If you are a people person who is passionate about progressive politics and has an eye for detail - join our team!
Location: This fully remote position can be performed in most of the continental US. However, we can only hire folks who would be working from these US states: Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Unfortunately, we can't hire people who would be working from any other states.
What you’ll do:
Recruiters are assigned different tasks based on skills and experience. As a Recruiter, you should expect to do any combination of these tasks, but not all of them consistently:
Interview, Evaluate, and Hire Staff
Carry Out Full-Cycle Recruitment
Hit Hiring Goals for Projects Across the Country
Be Flexible

Pay, Hours & Benefits
Pay is $20/hr for Recruiters and $22/hr for Team Leads. Recruiters who are Arabic/English bilingual will earn an additional $1/hr.
The core shifts offered are 10:30 pm - 6 pm EST Mon thru Friday and 10 am - 2 pm ET Sat & Sun. We also have a handful of morning and evening shifts available for recruiters who take on onboarding responsibilities. We expect to offer these core hours consistently, but this work ebbs and flows, so the available hours may change as new campaigns start and others end. We will give at least a 2-week notice for any shift changes.
Beyond pay, we do offer a generous benefits package, including paid sick leave, health insurance, and a (virtual) classroom-style training. At the end of the campaign cycle, there may be opportunities for advancement.
At The Outreach Team, we prioritize equity and inclusion. We are an equal opportunity employer and we strongly encourage Black, indigenous, people of color, women, people with previous felony convictions, members of the LGBTQIA+ community, and others who identify with underrepresented groups to apply. Please note: We want to hire people of all gender identities. This hiring platform (JazzHR) does not allow us to add in specific options for gender identities outside of the binary, but we are currently working with them to find a solution.
