as well as

L1 = $150 per day

L2 = $250 per day

L3 = $350 per day


Shift Options

Some offers will be for three days; many will be for two days.  All offers will include work on Saturday.  Please make sure to answer any questions about 2- and 3-day shifts if a 3-day shift is required.


Special Saturday Shifts

Saturday at a Grand Prix can be a challenging experience.  To properly serve the needs of the event, a number of judges may be assigned to Extended or Split shifts.  Extended shifts work longer hours; split shifts have a significantly long break in the middle of the shift.  If you are interested in this opportunity, please answer the appropriate question in your application.  These shifts are not available to L1 applicants.  Notification of selection for special Saturday shifts are included with the notification of acceptance to the event.

The additional compensation for a special Saturday shift is:

L2 or 3: $100

 

Status types

You may apply for one or both statuses: Confirmed or Standby.


Please apply for all status types you will accept. If you select both Confirmed and Standby, we will consider you for Confirmed staff first. If you select Confirmed but do not select Standby, we will not consider you for Standby.  Selecting both options does not impact your selection for either option.  If selected as Standby, we expect you to attend the event.  If activated, you will receive normal judge level compensation instead.  If not activated, you will receive a free event entry usable for any event including the main event.  Please notify us as soon as possible if you are on Standby but unable to be activated.

 

Paperwork

Please note that all staff members are independent contractors and will be required to complete U.S. tax paperwork prior to beginning their shift. 

 

  • U.S. citizens and U.S. residents must complete a W-9.
