For those of you especially in the DC area, have you seen a job posted?

I'm serious. For all the bitching we do, I assume they have to invest alot of man horus to get these applications verified. Considering first they get 35,000 applications, each of which is accompanied by AT LEAST one hard copy of a transcript. No consider that there are several hundred colleges and universities represented in the applicant pool, making it nearly impossible to standardize course designations across the board. For instance, 2 classes of nearly identical content could be listed in entirely different departments at 2 different colleges.

Considering all that, I would assume AMCAS has to employ a good number of reviewers....so where's the jobs at?

Would/could these be temporary positions because most of the AMCAS stuff gets done between June & August. Might these be good summer jobs for people who work college or grad school admissions in the DC area? The jobs may be advertised to those targeted populations and not listed more broadly.
