About the role

The University of Rochester in Rochester, New York is seeking stage assistants to prepare costumes, wigs, and makeup for Eastman productions. You will work in the costume shop and support on-stage attire for performances. Ideal candidates have at least one year of related experience, familiarity with stage equipment, and the ability to lift up to 25 pounds. Strong communication, safety awareness, and English literacy are required.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
