    Our forum regulars have likely noticed some changes in our team line up lately. Some shuffling around of our staff members has left us with quite a bit of room on the team, and for that reason we’ve decided to open up applications to everyone.

    Staff applications are always open to Premium Members, regardless of whether or not we need staff members. Because we would like a high volume of applications right now, we want to make sure that everyone has a shot at applying. We want everyone to seriously consider applying, even if you have applied before in the past – that means, yes, re-apply if you are still interested!

    Here are some basic descriptions of the different jobs on our team, but we don’t want to limit you to them. Staff members are encouraged and expected to come up with new ideas and projects to make the site more enjoyable, as well as aid in those projects concocted by others. We find it beneficial to make our job expectations fluid—while each position has a basic niche or purpose, you are not limited to that field of work. That said, we are looking for people to fill the following positions:

    News Reporters
    Reporters keep the site up to date with Kingdom Hearts news, involve the site in community projects, and moderate the News & Updates forum. Keeping the homepage fresh is a priority. They may also write articles and editorials, and are expected to keep our official social media accounts active.

    Translators
    Translators work closely with our news team to provide translations of scans, videos, interviews, and so on. Any translation of Kingdom Hearts material is appreciated. The job requires extensive knowledge of Japanese (written and spoken), and Translators should constantly keep watch for untranslated material.

    Media Content Recorders
    Media Content Recorders are tasked with recording videos and audio from the Kingdom Hearts games in optimal quality. Powerful computers, recording equipment, knowledge of video encoding, and general tech savvy will serve Recorders well.

    Sectional Moderators
    Sectional Moderators are our jack-of-all trades. They must keep their assigned section(s) functioning in an orderly manner, mediate member conflicts, hand out punishment, stimulate discussion and activity, and involve themselves in any community project being hosted. If within their interest and skillset, a Sectional Moderator may also perform the duties of a News Reporter, Translator, or Media Content Recorder.​

    All positions require an application. We do read through and judge every application, so we ask that you put the necessary care, time, and attention into it. Impress us!

    Should we consider selecting you, we will contact you about an interview. We ask that you do not approach staff members regarding the status of your application. Currently, there is no set date that applications will be due or that people will be approached about interviews. You can keep an eye on this thread for updates.

    Some of you may not be familiar with our application system; the application itself should be rather straightforward. You are welcome to apply for more than one position, just fill out both applications separately. If you have questions, or encounter any errors, either contact a staff member privately or post within this thread.

    Staff applications are accessible via this page:

    [CLOSED]

    Thanks for your time and we look forward to hearing from you!

    I wish I had the time to be mod on KHV since this place was like my first home and stuff. But with school and my server things would never be able to work out. However, I wish everyone the best of luck to those who do apply <3

    I've submitted my application. Hope to be able to join the team. It'd give @Plums someone to torture. :P

    Good luck to everyone that's submitted or will be submitting applications!

    Good luck to everyone else sending an app in.

    I'm looking forward to seeing who makes it to the other side.

    Sent in an app a while ago, but certain stuff had changed. Do I need to send in a new one?

    Yep! It's recommended to send a new one in every time you apply.

    Yes, the two are essentially interchangeable.

    He's saying he feels ambushed by the flood of apps, that's all.
    It's not like we're all zombies...

    Good luck, y'all. You have some big shoes to fill.

    Namely mine.

    My feet are massive!
