Just look online for your local electoral office (as you can only work for your own area, unless backup), walk in, fill out an application and they will give you a date for training right away usually, or they will tell you, you are backup. The times that I have been back up I usually got a place to go right away though. You are still put through training.

For the choice between Voting Officer and Voting Clerk... Voting Clerk does more work, however Voting Officer has more responsibility. I was always the Voting Officer, I usually just sit there and pre fold all the ballots, the hardest part is the end, where you have scrutineers looking over your shoulders and you have to count the ballots and make sure nobody else touches them. You're body is usually sore, you have a headache, and are hungry by then and just want to go home. lol.
Quick question. I received a call today to go in for an interview at the burnaby location in the next few days. However, when I looked up the address that the lady gave me on the phone, it was an apartment in construction. Do you know the address of the Burnaby office by any chance?

Thanks
