We have worked with various schools and universities to also ensure you receive internship credit for your summer work as well. If this is something you are interested in, let us know during your interview!
We also have a recruitment incentive! If you are brought on as a Cabin Leader, anyone you recruit who is hired also qualifies you for an additional $100/person bonus at the end of summer.
