Skills shortage

I’m currently looking for a research assistant to work one day a week. The work will vary, but the main tasks will include bibliographic searches, hunting down references, photocopying and scanning, and writing reports for projects in progress or being developed. It would suit an undergraduate or honours student with fairly high computer literacy, capacity to use research software, and an interest in new media and online culture. My research pages give a sense of the work I’m doing.

I may also need someone in a couple of months’ time with interviewing experience, and would be happy to train the same person to do that too. Basically I’m looking for a reliable team to get my APD research finished, with the view to this leading on to future collaborations. Without regular access to students through teaching, and with my research becoming increasingly specific, I’m finding this a little hard to establish. So if you know of anyone who might be interested, please let them know. I’d like a one page CV and description of the person’s general situation, within the next week or so.
