Landing the Job

We are so grateful to receive a grant this summer that allows us to hire 25 teen interns for our summer programs!!  As word poured out, the applications poured in.  We have already interviewed almost 50 candidates anywhere from ages 14-25.  For many of our younger applicants, this was their first job interview.  Through sweaty palms, nervous laughter, and stumbled words, our interview process has been a great learning experience for them.  Many of our older applicants used to participate in Little Lights programs when they were younger.  It was great to see them looking for an opportunity to give back.  The selection process will not be an easy one, but it is great to see so much motivation from our youth.
