Club Penguin Wiki:Staffer Promotions

Hi everyone. We have decided it is time to expand and will likely promote a new staffer! While we are extremely likely to pick one, it is not currently guaranteed. If you are interested in becoming a CPWN Staff member, sign your name below and we will contact you with details on how to move forward with the application process in the coming weeks. Be sure to review the requirements and recommendations before you apply.

Note: Nothing is final. We may change any of our plans, requirements, guidelines, etc.

Selection Process

We have determined the order of how we will select the staffer. The bold step is the step we are currently on.

  1. Users who are interested in becoming staff will list their names
  2. Signups will close and we will review each request to make sure each user meets the basic requirements (not the "recommendations", that comes later). Those who do not meet the 3 basic requirements will be eliminated.
  3. Users who meet the requirements will be contacted and given an application to fill out with questions to answer and information to fill out.
  4. We will review the applications and will pick a few of the best applications to continue to the next step. Those who aren't selected will be eliminated. This is where most applicants will be eliminated.
  5. The few who are selected will be contacted to have an IRC interview set up. The current staffers will interview these applicants on IRC, with assistance from former staffer LordMaster96.
  6. Staff will review each interview conducted and decide in private who will be promoted. If the staff can not decide, the decision will be postponed until a later date.
  7. The user selected will be given staff internship (also known as "trial") and their performance will be asessed.
  8. If the user performs well, they will be promoted to full staff.
