Bulbagarden has announced a site-wide staff recruitment drive for 2017, which will run for two weeks until Aug. 25. The interested users can apply for Bulbanews Translator, Bulbanews Writer, Staff Artist, and Social Media Contributor. In addition, we have several openings available for moderators throughout Bulbagarden forums.

The applicants are required to fill out a questionnaire provided in the announcement thread. In case if you don't have an account on Bulbagarden forums, then you can sign up for one from here. After you are done with the questionnaire, submit it as a new thread in the Bulbagarden Staff Drive 2017 section. For the thread's title, you must include the section or role that you are applying for first, followed by your username.

For example:

  • Title: Outside the Box - Dig
  • Title: Social Media Contributor - Enzap
  • Title: Bulbanews Writer - Adil

Please keep in mind that your thread will only be accessible to staff. Furthermore, there is no limit to how many positions you can apply for, but you will not necessarily get all of the positions if you're successful for one. Good luck!
