A research assistant was an entry-level position given to those employed at the British Ministry of Magic whose job it was to handle assignments that had more to do with 'academic problem-solving' than those of their colleagues. Once accepted, potential applicants would be evaluated and assigned to one of the six main departments at the Ministry depending on the results of their assessment. There, they would assist specific branches of the governing body in the execution of their daily duties in the capacity of research assistants, having both clerical and consultative duties.[1]
