The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is searching for top level Field Organizers to help in our efforts to win our most competitive congressional campaigns.
I am writing to you today to let you know that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee will be hosting Field Organizer Trainings in all regions of the country throughout the months of May and June. These training are for applicants who are interested in gaining the skills to organize communities for Democrats in Congressional Districts around the county.
All interested participants must complete the application at: www.dccc.org/fieldorganizertraining/ by Friday, May 7th.
The training will cover:
• Organizing Best Practices
• Working with other departments on a campaign
• Volunteer Management
• Training on the VAN and other Field software
Field Organizers on a congressional campaign are the most important element of a successful field program. They are the prime point of contact between a campaign and prospective voters. Organizers are responsible for recruiting and managing volunteers, voter contact, and overall execution of the field program in a defined area. In addition, field organizers are responsible for recording results, cutting turf, and training volunteers on the field program. They are responsible for coaching and motivating volunteers, who are the engine of the field program. Field Organizers must have strong leadership skills plus the ability and desire to work with people. Most importantly, they have to have the desire to win and do whatever it takes!
Please remember to complete the application at: www.dccc.org/fieldorganizertraining/ by May 7th, 2010 for consideration. The DCCC will let applications know if there is space available by Wednesday May 12th. Applicants will be considered on a first come, first serve basis.
Thank you,
