https://www.gu.se/om-universitetet/hitta-organisation/sektionen-for-tentamen
Duties
As an exam proctor, you are responsible for ensuring that students taking exams in University of Gothenburg's shared examination halls can do so in a legally secure manner. You ensure that exams can be started and submitted correctly (either digitally or on paper), verify that the student is registered for the respective exam and has valid identification. The role of exam proctor also includes working to detect any misconduct and reporting such cases further.
As an exam proctor, you will meet many students, so correct and professional conduct is important. It is naturally understood that you treat all students respectfully, and at University of Gothenburg we have zero tolerance for all forms of discrimination and disrespectful treatment.
Qualifications
For this position, you must have experience with exam proctor duties at a university or college.
As an exam proctor, you must master Swedish and English well, both orally and in writing. It is an advantage if you are familiar with the examination regulations at University of Gothenburg and the Discrimination Act.
As an exam proctor, you always work in a team, which requires good collaboration skills. In addition to this, we are looking for someone who is meticulous, flexible, and can handle a work environment where the pace is sometimes high. As a person, you are clear and treat students in a professional manner. You are confident in yourself and can also handle confrontations that may arise in the exam situation. You are attentive and must be prepared to intervene at any suspected rule violation to ensure the quality of the operation.
Today, the majority of exams in the examination hall are conducted digitally (approximately 90%), with paper exams making up a smaller portion. Digital exams are conducted in a digital system that you as an exam proctor also work in. A prerequisite is therefore that you are comfortable working in different digital systems and can quickly learn and integrate new technology and programs into your work. At University of Gothenburg, work is primarily conducted in a Windows environment, but many students use Mac computers.
During digital hall exams, you as an exam proctor are responsible for IT support to students. This means you need to be able to handle connections to the wireless network, installation and updates of specific programs, and have knowledge of operating systems. IT support also includes helping students manage the system in which digital exams are written.
As an exam proctor for us, you cannot be a student at undergraduate or advanced level at University of Gothenburg or at another college/university.
