Staff Application
Have you reviewed our mission statement and love what NCAS is about? Do you want to join us? (We might have cookies.) We’re looking for more like-minded souls that share our values to aid in our quest!
NCAS is currently seeking more staff volunteers to help out in year-round and event-specific roles. Positions with us are unpaid, and do not have hard schedules or time requirements. However, accepting a staff volunteer position reflects a serious commitment to help NCAS achieve our goals. If you have any questions about how you can help NCAS, our human resources department will be happy to answer them. Send an email to hr@ncanthrosociety.org and one of our attentive volunteers will get back to you.
As a token of our appreciation, all NCAS staff receive several perks for our conventions:
- Free general registration to Bewhiskered and Carolina Furfare, or a corresponding discount on sponsor, super sponsor, and fursona level tiers should you choose to upgrade.
- Priority access to the hotel room block.
- Early access for room reservations.
- Room placed on the staff floor of the hotel.
- (For staff working during the convention) Ability to apply for need-based assistance with the cost of a hotel room.
- Merchandise
- Staff-only merchandise, such as a staff t-shirt. Merch and availability may fluctuate between conventions.
- Staff that participate in any part of the production process for merchandise in the con-store can purchase that item at-cost.
- Ability to apply for staff dealer tables in the dealers den.
- Access to the staff lounge or other staff resources, depending on availability and venue.

Volunteer Interest
Not quite ready to make the leap to being staff? That's fine! We're looking for volunteers too. Volunteering is currently on a per-event basis and applications will be announced on our social media. See our home page for our primary social media accounts.
Volunteers for Bewhiskered and Carolina Furfare that go above and beyond will receive gifts of appreciation as a thank you from the convention. While these gifts vary from year to year, they traditionally include a themed gift of some kind, a convention t-shirt, and comped reg for a future convention.
