MAL INTERVIEWS: REVIVE, RECRUIT, RESTART, REPEAT



Seems Like MAL Interviews is Maybe Alive Again!

How many times has this club been revived? Three, four, twenty times? Honestly, at this point, none of us are keeping track anymore! With the club stuck in limbo for the past year, this once-trendy gathering is finally destined to be buried forever in the annals of MAL history, never to be heard from again.

Or will it...?

After a lengthy internal discussion, the remaining members of the staff team have agreed to give this club another shot. Rather than trying to propose revolutionary ideas or significant changes like in the past, we intend to simply continue where we left off with a few minor additions. A soft reboot, if you will.

Volunteers Wanted

As always, we are looking for new volunteers. These positions are available:

  • Interviewers—The primary workforce of the club. We are looking for enthusiastic people who are knowledgeable about the MAL community, willing to work with others, and can write decently in English. Above all, you must have a positive attitude. Should you possess these qualities and are interested in becoming an interviewer, now is your chance!
  • Proofreaders—Those accepted are responsible for revising interviews before their release. Users willing to apply for this position are expected to be highly proficient in the English language. They should be able to not only pinpoint major grammatical errors and formatting mistakes, but also make corrections without altering the essence of the interview.

Important: You must have a Discord account to apply. Club operations will primarily be run from there.

How to apply
Send your application to @NextUniverse's MAL inbox. Include your desired position and your reason for applying. I recommend posting in this thread after sending your application so @NextUniverse may be notified faster.

Guidelines
  1. Interviewer applicants will conduct a trial interview. You will be given the chance to interview a nominated user of your choice for your evaluation. Depending on your performance, you will be given the position.
  2. Proofreader applicants will be given a proofreading test. Read the instructions, do your best, and make sure to tick the agreement at the end of the test. I will be personally marking all proofreader tests and giving you feedback.

I look forward to working with all new staff members. We're a fun small friendly group of hardworking people!

New Nominations Thread

We will be opening a new Nominations thread as the original board is already too cluttered, thereby making it difficult for us to identify potential candidates. Please read the introductory post carefully since we've added some new guidelines. You may access the new Nominations thread by clicking here.

Five Interviews at Launch

Guess what? To show we're really serious about getting the club back on track, our team has prepared five diverse interviews of renowned MAL users alongside this announcement! Do check them out when you have the time!

That will be all! Enjoy reading the interviews to your heart's content!

I hope the renaissance will be long-lasting this time. There are quite a few users that I want to see being interviewed. I'm kinda interested in applying for the proofreader position, as well.

Ok, but is there anyone left worth interviewing? Unless Stark or Lanblade suddenly decide to take one.... Well, is it a bannable offence to say I don't really care about many of the users here? lol
