The University of Virginia School of Law is hiring graduate exam assistants to help proctor final exams between 8:00am-6:00pm on weekdays from December 4th through December 18th. A mandatory training session will be held on the week of November 30th.
Exam assistants will support the Law School’s Student Records Office (SRO) with exam administration to help facilitate a smooth, secure, and fair testing environment. Exam assistants must have a strong attention to detail; be able to show good judgment in sensitive situations; and be reliable, punctual, and able to remain attentive for extended periods. Exam assistants will:
- Monitor exam rooms to help enforce testing rules (e.g., restrictions on electronic devices and other specified materials) in a calm, professional, and respectful manner.
- Promptly and accurately document any irregularities with SRO personnel.
- Provide excellent customer support to students and Law School personnel.

- Organize and maintain exam questions and student information in a secure environment.
- Review exam rooms before exams begin to ensure rooms are in good condition.

- Other duties as assigned.
The Law School administers exams in its building and does not conduct remote exams. Exam assistants may be assigned to large exam rooms, small groups, or individual testing spaces. Exams are administered using Exam4 software.
Exam assistants will not provide technical support or technical troubleshooting. All computing and Exam4-related issues will be handled by Law IT personnel, who will be available to support students as needed.
Outside of the mandatory training, the anticipated work schedule for this position is Monday through Friday from 7:45am to 6:00pm, December 4th – December 18th.
