Graders work with professors and TAs to grade homeworks, assignments, projects, answer student questions, and, depending on experience, develop questions and projects. Graders are paid on an hourly basis, from $15-$25/hr depending on experience. The best way to get hired as a grader is to do well in a class, approach the professor, and see if she wants to hire you as a grader. The second best way is to get a general recommendation from a professor. Many students are hired as both a grader and TA for the same course. One recitation of a 4 credit course is 1 credit, with pay determined by the union contract. As with graders, the best way to get hired is to do well in a course and get a recommendation from the course instructor.
