User Operations Associate, Content Moderation

Summary: This is a Full-Time (40 hours per week - no part-time availability) remote role based in the United States, with availability mandated during department core hours of 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Pacific Time. Yelp's Content Moderation team evaluates reviews, photos, and other information to determine whether these posts meet our Content Guidelines and Terms of Service. By efficiently removing posts that are conflicts of interest, inappropriate, or other abuse, we ensure that everyone who uses Yelp is finding helpful information about local businesses that will lead them to make informed decisions. In this role, you'll balance empathy with the emotional distance and neutrality that's necessary to evaluate content against our guidelines and enforce our terms, while pacing yourself to meet a quota and maintain our quality standards. You'll need to read between the lines of users' stories for context and nuance, "trust, but verify" that their content meets our standards, and guide users towards constructive participation on Yelp. Much of our work is self-directed, so you'll need to effectively manage your time in order to meet both quota and quality expectations, but also be able to recognize when a case needs to be escalated. You should be comfortable with sharing your conclusions (and backing them up) while being open to feedback and ready to work as a team to build consensus. We're excited for you to join us as we continue to maintain the trust of Yelp's community! What you'll do:

• You will moderate

content (including reviews, photos and profiles) reported by users and business owners.

• You will apply team policies and

guidelines, and message users effectively regarding our decisions.

will work full-time (8 hours per day on weekdays during normal business hours) and meet/exceed a required minimum number of cases resolved within that time.

• You will work cross-functionally with other

teams in the User Operations department.

• You will provide

feedback to managers on possible improvements to processes, policies, and documentation. What it takes to succeed:

• Bachelor's

degree (preferred)

• You are enthusiastic about Yelp's

mission.

• You have at least 1 year of work

experience.

• You have a positive, team-oriented attitude

even when focusing on your own work.

• You enjoy reading

and have strong research skills.

• You commit yourself to

consistently meet/exceed quality expectations.

• You are

comfortable with (or open to) a quota-driven environment.

• Please submit a cover letter outlining your

interest in Yelp and this position! What you'll get:

first day: Full medical, vision, and dental
