Field staff members usually contract for one or two years of service and then go on to graduate school or other career opportunities. Salaries are modest but competitive with commercial, entry-level compensation. Usual health and fringe benefits are provided. While on the road, all living and traveling expenses for field staff are provided by the Fraternity. Following a summer training course, the position involves starting new Chapters and working with existing ZBT Chapters.
Consultants often travel and work on weekends and for several days at a time.
No previous experience is required for this position. New staff members are trained by ZBT's senior staff and skilled alumni. Applicants should be prepared to absorb and utilize a good deal of new information and to practice newly acquired skills. While some travel will be by air, much will be done by driving. Consultants driving their own cars will be reimbursed for mileage.
