About this role
Do you want to work as an Exam Invigilator?
Work at an innovative college where different perspectives meet!
Halmstad University creates values, drives innovation, and develops people and society for the future.
Since its founding in 1983, the University has been characterized by innovative thinking and collaboration with society. Research is internationally renowned and conducted primarily through multidisciplinary research programs within the University's two focus areas: health innovation and smart cities and communities. The University offers a wide range of educational programs with many popular study options. The campus is modern and well-equipped, located close to both the transit center and Halmstad's pleasant city center.
We are seeking exam invigilators for hourly employment as needed, stationed at the Educational Support department. Educational Support is a central department within the University's operational support, with approximately 50 employees responsible for all study administration and student support, both centrally and academically. The department is organized into three groups: study support, student-near support, and study administration. Exam services are part of the study support group.

You need to be comfortable informing student groups about rules and regulations during the exam. A critical task is also detecting, preventing, and reporting suspected cheating. The work can be physically demanding and requires good vision and hearing.
Exams are conducted both digitally and on paper. Digital exams are done in a computer system that you as an invigilator will also work in. The digital orientation of exams will become increasingly comprehensive. Therefore, it is crucial that you have good computer skills, an interest in IT, and can easily learn new systems.
You will perform the aforementioned tasks correctly and with a professional approach. Our multicultural environment means you will work in both Swedish and English, orally and in writing, almost daily.
