Budget Title: Instructional Support Assistant (SL-1)

Salary: $20/hour (part-time, temporary, remote)

The Office of Undergraduate Admissions is hiring several remote-based part-time Application Readers. Please note: while the position will be fully-remote, new hires must come to Binghamton's Human Resources Office in person one time prior to the start of training.

The exact end date will vary depending on the needs of the Undergraduate Admissions Office.
