JOB OVERVIEW

We are creating a short documentary for The Avant Order, a sponsor-funded education initiative focused on developing the human capabilities technology cannot replace: Judgment, Agency, Execution, Adaptability, and Multiplication.

We need a sharp researcher to help us build the research foundation for the documentary.

This is not a full-time job. This is a focused project.

You will research:

Artificial intelligence and automation
Future of work
AI’s impact on students and education
Human judgment, agency, self-governance, execution, and adaptability
Behavioral science related to decision-making and follow-through
Private school / elite student pressure
Workforce economics
Corporate sponsorship / CSR relevance
Useful YouTube videos, speeches, interviews, lectures, podcasts, and public clips we may reference or license for the documentary

Main Deliverables:

Research Report
20–40 pages
Organized by topic
Clear summaries
Every major claim supported by a source link
Include the strongest facts, statistics, quotes, and arguments
Talking Points Library
200+ strong talking points
Organized by category
Each talking point must include source link and short explanation
Documentary Video Clip Library
For each suggested video clip, include:
Video title
Link
Exact timestamp
Exact quote or scene description
Why it matters
Which documentary section it supports
Licensing status if available
Whether it is likely usable, requires permission, or is only for reference
Interview Question Bank
Create strong interview questions for:
Behavioral scientist
AI / workforce economist
School leader
Sponsor / philanthropist
Parent
Student
Visual Reference Library
Find examples of:
AI visuals
Workforce change visuals
Student pressure visuals
School visuals
Technology visuals
Documentary references

Required Skills:

Strong online research ability
Excellent English reading and writing
Ability to summarize complex ideas clearly
Ability to verify sources
Ability to organize information cleanly
Ability to find useful YouTube clips with timestamps
Ability to distinguish credible sources from weak sources
Google Docs or Notion experience
Spreadsheet organization

You are a good fit if:

You are precise
You think critically
You do not just copy and paste
You can explain why a source matters
You can find useful video clips quickly
You understand how to support arguments with evidence
You can organize research so a writer, filmmaker, and editor can use it

You are not a fit if:

You rely only on AI without checking sources
You submit generic summaries
You cannot provide timestamps
You cannot organize research clearly
You do not verify links
You miss deadlines
You copy from websites without synthesis
You provide weak sources like random blogs when stronger sources exist

To Apply:

Reply with the subject line:

AVANT DOCUMENTARY RESEARCH

In your application, answer these questions:

What research projects have you done before?
Send 1–2 examples of research work, reports, or organized source lists.
What tools do you use for research?
How do you verify whether a source is credible?
Have you researched YouTube videos, podcasts, or documentary clips before?
How fast can you complete a 2–4 week research project?
What fixed price would you charge for this project?

Application Test:

Before applying, complete this short test.

Find 3 credible sources that support this idea:

“As AI automates more technical work, human judgment, agency, adaptability, and responsible execution become more valuable.”

For each source, provide:

Source title
Link
3–5 sentence summary
Why it is credible
One strong quote or statistic if available

Then find 2 YouTube videos that could support a documentary on AI, students, and the future of work.

For each video, provide:

Video title
Link
Timestamp
What happens or what is said at that timestamp
Why it could be useful

Applications without the correct subject line and completed test will be ignored.

Final Note:
We are looking for someone who can think, verify, organize, and explain — not just collect links.
