Becoming a Sevak
We look for people who already go, not people looking for gigs.
Who this suits
Someone who lives near a place of worship and already attends it. Someone the community there would recognise. Retired people, and people with a settled routine, make the best Sevaks — because the work depends on being there at the correct hour, reliably, for years.
What the work is
Attend at the proper time. Make or witness the offering. Photograph, record thirty seconds of video, capture the audio where permitted. Write the note by hand. Submit it the same day.
Most sevas take under an hour, including travel.
What it pays
A fixed fee per seva, paid weekly. It does not vary with the size of the offering — deliberately, so that no Sevak has a reason to steer anyone toward a larger one.
Applying
Apply from the app or the website. Expect an interview in person, identity and address verification, a police background check, and a reference from the institution or its community. The process takes about two weeks.
You do not need to be a priest. For most sevas the Sevak is a devotee who attends, offers and records. Where a ritual requires an ordained priest, the institution's own priest performs it and the Sevak is there to witness and record.
