2020 ETS English Language Learning & GRE® Verbal Summer Institute: Paid Summer Associate Positions Available
The English Language Learning (ELL) group and the GRE® Verbal group in the Assessment and Learning Technology Development Division of Educational Testing Service (ETS) expect to hire approximately 24 associates for the summer of 2020.
【POSITION OVERVIEW】
ELL summer associates will produce materials for use on large-scale, high-stakes standardized tests of English language proficiency. Each summer associate will work on one of the following:
• TOEFL iBT® Test
The TOEFL iBT test is taken by nonnative speakers of English who are planning to apply to a college or university in an English-speaking country.
• TOEIC® Tests
The TOEIC tests are taken principally by people who need to communicate with both native and nonnative speakers of English in the context of the global workplace.
• GRE Verbal test summer associates will produce materials for use on large-scale, high-stakes standardized tests to assess readiness for graduate-level work. Specifically, they will help develop assessment materials for the Verbal Reasoning measure, which assesses complex verbal reasoning skills.
The test development work is intellectually challenging and rewarding. The work may include:
✔︎ writing items that test knowledge of grammar, vocabulary, and reading comprehension
✔︎ writing items that test analytical reasoning
✔︎ identifying academic texts that are suitable for testing reading comprehension, critical reading, and analytical skills
✔︎ creating conversations and talks that test listening comprehension
✔︎developing scenarios and prompts that allow candidates to demonstrate their speaking or writing skills
【PROGRAM DETAILS】
The program runs from July 6th through August 14th (6 weeks) for all ELL test sections, and from July 6th through July 31st (4 weeks) for GRE Verbal. Summer associates are expected to work 8:30–5:00, Monday through Friday, for their entire program, and will receive attractive compensation.
All work is conducted at the ETS Rosedale campus in Princeton, New Jersey. Summer associates must provide or arrange their own housing and transportation.
【JOB REQUIREMENTS】
The TOEFL iBT test, TOEIC tests, and GRE Verbal test are global measures, so ETS actively seeks candidates who can bring diverse experiences and perspectives to the work. The Summer Institute workforce includes people from a variety of backgrounds, such as undergraduate students, graduate students, teachers, professors, and professional writers. ELL program applicants must have completed at least some undergraduate work to be considered. GRE Verbal applicants must have completed at least a master’s degree (or possess equivalent experience) to be considered.
All summer associates must have appropriate authorization to work in the United States. If you do not currently have U.S. work authorization, please note: Some candidates who receive an offer to be a summer associate may be able to apply for a CPT or an OPT work authorization visa if enrolled at a U.S. university. Check with your university’s international student services office or program coordinator for eligibility before applying to the ETS Summer Institute. CPT visas can usually be acquired quickly, while OPT visas typically take longer. Candidates who receive an offer and who need a CPT or an OPT visa should apply for one of these visas immediately upon accepting our offer. Summer associates must have a very high degree of fluency in English but do not need to be native speakers.
【APPLICATION PROCESS】
Each of the test sections hiring for the summer is associated with a specific work sample. You will need to complete and submit a separate work sample for each test section for which you would like to be considered.
⚑ Directions for completing and submitting your work sample(s), along with a cover letter and résumé, are posted on the ETS Summer Institute Web site at
https://www.ets.org/careers/summer-institute.
Applications are due Friday, January 31, 2020. Applicants are selected mainly on the basis of their performance on the work samples. Work samples will be evaluated in February and March, and you will be notified of your status by Friday, March 13, 2020. For questions, please contact Recruiting
