Be aware that you've only taken the first step. It's a multi-step process.1) Sign up on the volunteer interest list. (This is where you are.)2) Register to be a volunteer when registration opens up for people on the volunteer interest list.3) Sign up for a shift at comic-con.Once you're a registered volunteer, you are guaranteed to be able to work a shift a day during comic-con. You schedule your shifts at Volunteer HQ during comic-con.The only shift you can be assigned is the pre-con shift. That's pretty much a separate process. When you register to be a volunteer, there is the option to say you are interested in a pre-con shift. A couple of weeks before comic-con, they send out an email to everyone on the pre-con shift interest list. Then you register for that by noting what days and times you can work. It's FIFO. When pre-con shifts become available, they assign shifts to people based on first come first served. If you want a pre-con shift, you'll have much better odds if you say you can work on any day at any time versus only on Monday between 2-6pm.
Regarding step 3. Do you go to Volunteer HQ on the day you want a shift and grab an assignment then, or do you go the day before? Does it change if you want an early pre-opening shift (like 6-7am)? If you want a shift everyday, do you have to go in everyday to pick an assignment, or can you go in once at the beginning and select all your assignments?
You can sign up for a shift the day before in the afternoon or evening. So you can sign up the day before to save time.You have to sign up for each shift separately. So either on the day of or the day before. You also have to wait a little bit after completing a shift before you can sign up for the next day's shift.
I was going to make a comment about being surprised the Volunteer Interest list is still open, but then I looked up the 2019 Volunteer thread, and it seemed the Interest List was up for around 30 hours before it reached capacity. It'll be interesting to see how long it takes this time around.
Any info? When do they tell you if you're in or out? The parking lottery is coming up and I want to know where I stand.
Once the Interest List has reached capacity, those on the Interest List will receive an email notification with the date and time that Comic-Con 2022 Daily Volunteer Registration will be available to them. Registration will remain open for the Interest List, as well as any unregistered returning volunteers, on a first-come, first-served basis until the program’s capacity is reached. At that time, the volunteer program will close and there will be no further opportunities to register to volunteer for Comic-Con 2022. Check this page frequently for updates about Interest List signups.
If you volunteer for one day, do you only get a badge for that one day?
Thanks for all the info. I'm grasping at straws to keep my 30 + year streak of attending intact.
