Can you please specify what you mean by "work sample' in the OLP Video Specialist application requirements? Are you looking for a reel / video work? Thanks ... I look forward to applying for such an exciting position.

Good question. We'd like to see video work samples. Online links work well, but if you'd prefer to send an existing DVD or video or such, please mail to global kids, whose address can be found at GlobalKids.org. If you have more questions, please let us know.
