Dear Wikimedians,

I would like to request members of the Indian Wikipedia community to nominate themselves to serve on the CIS's A2K Programme Director recruitment committee. This programme will hopefully receive large grant from Wikimedia Foundation and we would greatly benefit from community input during the hiring process of the new Programme Director.

The volunteer must be experienced Wikipedian, based in India [ as we cannot afford international travel for the interviews] and must have sufficient managerial experience [including experience with conducting interviews]. The volunteer should be able to spare time in September to review applications remotely and also conduct face-to-face interviews for 2 days either in Bangalore or Delhi.

Those who fit the description are requested to nominate yourself by sending me an email with a profile and relevant URLs before COB 25th August 2012.

I will publish a long list on cis-india.org on 29th August, after removing those nominations that don't have the required qualifications. The volunteer to serve on the recruitment committee will be selected from the long list by using IETF's Publicly Verifiable Nominations Committee (NomCom) Random Selection[1].

The other members of this recruitment committee will consist of 1. One of the existing independent consultants [Hisham, Nitika, Noopur, Shiju or Subha] 2. One member from the Wikipedia Chapter (Wikimedia India Program Trust) community. To be nominated by the Chapter Executive Committee. 3. Executive Director of CIS - me.

The recruitment committee will be responsible for screening the long list of eligible applications and conducting one-on-one face-to-face interviews with the short list of applicants.

Best wishes,

Sunil
