VR Job In Austin TX!!!
Hello Everyone!
I am a recruiter at Insight Global, and I am currently working on a really cool job, but it is very unorthodox. Our client (I am not allowed to say their name on initial outreach, but I will tell you who if you reach out) is looking for people who have experience using VR to operate the humanoid robots that they are developing. Ik it's crazy but its legit I've been grinding to find candidates all week. They have a full warehouse for training these robots by operating the robots with VR controls to do warehouse work, and the robots learn from their mistakes while you operate. Here are the 6 things you must have to get hired:
- Live in or close to Austin
- Have reliable form of transportation (Have access to your car or a family car)
- have experience playing VR (The first interview is a VR skill/coordination test)
- Have no other obligations during the AM shift 6am-2:30 or the PM shift 2:30pm-11:00pm
- Be able to walk and move around for the duration of those shift periods
- pass a background check/ drug test (not testing for THC)
The role is a 12 month contract Mon-Friday that is in-person and onsite not remote. It pays $17/hr and there is no wiggle room, I have tried.
Message me if you meet these requirements and are interested!
here is the official Job Description:
