Just to add on to what Suzzette said. People mistake People Staff as a simply "community" position, a position used to interact with members and build connections. Though this is very important, the job is not purely that.
People will definitely criticize and judge you and your abilities. However, you can't let this compromise your job. You've got to be strict but fair and not be biased on your decisions, no matter who your friends are. You can't second guess yourself. Think about a decision and discuss it with other moderators, but most importantly, trust your instinct. Moderators are hired because they should know what is appropriate around the community and what is not. Instinct is important. Make sure to give valid reasons when delivering punishments. Just a couple tips. |

Just a couple tips. Definitely, Robbi (who I miss on staff tremendously). You just do the best you can and KNOW that you aren't perfect and that you ARE going to make mistakes. Know that people are going to be quick to jump on you for those mistakes. It's just part of the job.  I think one of the biggest assets one must have in being staff is self confidence. I always find it interesting that at the time of a hiring, people tend to show off their softer side of Sears. Not that I've seen this yet, but please just be natural. Being pretentious or phony isn't going to get you anywhere. I think James is a good example of this. Trust me, James and I have definitely had our issues, to say the least.  But one thing he isn't is phony and that is certainly important. *Goes back to applications* Good luck everyone and please, don't be afraid to apply. You never know what possibilities you might miss out on.
