Take the next step in joining the Paranormal & Occult Research Team today!
First off, thank you for your interest in joining our team. There are many groups out there and we feel especially privileged that you are interested in us! There are couple of key things you must know and agree to before submitting an application for membership. First and foremost, you must have the desire to do this. Many people have a novel and possibly somewhat fairytale idea of what being a Paranormal Investigator means, but it is much different than most think! The second thing is that being that we are a Non-Profit Organization P.OR.T.'s funding is primarily driven by membership fees. This is crucial to the continued growth, replacement and repair of many items. Membership fees do not cover costs for trips to cases, but are used as a means to help P.O.R.T. evolve. NO member is paid for their time with P.O.R.T. P.O.R.T. does not offer an internship nor do we allow non-members to participate in any investigations. We appreciate your understanding & cooperation.
P.O.R.T. takes proactive stance to the consideration & addition of Paranormal Investigators to our team. No experience is required; however, if you are a seasoned investigator, we are looking for individuals who are open & willing to embrace as well as adhere to our methods, processes & policies. What we look for is individuals who don't have any major hobbies, schooling or commitments that would keep them from being engaged weekly. P.O.R.T. only focuses on cases in Washington & Oregon. So, yes, there is a little travel from time to time. We have a gifted core of members and are always willing to strengthen it with the right people. Listed below are some bullet points covering requirements for consideration for membership as well as maintaining an existing membership.
The functions of the Investigator (but not limited to) are: historical research, interviewing of clients / historians / witnesses / etc., investigating, debunking, analysis of material, and client follow up.
P.O.R.T. has a realistic approach that our members do have personal lives, families and paying jobs that must come first. So, we don't expect someone to live, breathe & eat this. However, we do need someone who truly WANTS to be a part of something amazing! Communication is essential, even within P.O.R.T. Without it, we will ultimately fail in helping our clients. P.O.R.T. will provide you an email address, business card template, access to each, input towards the betterment of the team and use of gear during investigations. There is no limit to where our team may go or what we may find. I can tell you that we have already had some unforgettable experiences.
Things required of members:
-At least 21 yrs. of age
-$100 yearly membership
-Weekly involvement
-Good people skills
-Good documentation skills
-Good communication skills (in person, phone & email)
-Attention to detail
-Common sense
-Professionalism
-Adherence to P.O.R.T. policies and Mission Statement
-Must live in Washington or Oregon
