Opportunity

A co-op is a great way to give an eager student the chance to learn about your business and support your company. It's also gives you as a company a low risk path to see if an employee can engage with your culture and job expectations before presenting a full time opportunity. We hear regularly that folks need 'experienced' employees with 3-5 years but the only way to build such talent is to support low cost talent pipelines like this to give great people a chance to shine. What we do: provide structure professional coaching and job readiness. What you as a company do: help secure the industry talent pipeline and remove barriers to those transitioning to learn more about you company. Many students receive job offers during their co-op to transition to part time while they study or fulltime offers for when they graduate. This is a not so secret way to find great talent and skip the AI resume checkers. Cory and his team can provide details about the full range of trades people, technicians/technologists, bachelors, and post-grad students seeking work placements to address your business needs. Bring us your staffing goals and we'll find a co-op student or graduate who can help. We also regularly engage with co-op employers to better understand their needs in defining and revising curriculum in our programs.

My son is home from college for a few weeks before he goes off to work at debate camps over the summer. Debate camps are what they sound like - camps for teenagers who love debate. Rather than swimsuits and sports equipment, they bring laptops and books on philosophy and international politics. My son attended these in high school and is now a camp counselor. The pay is good. Before he goes off to be a camp counselor he’s working as a valet. A few days a week, he leaves in the late afternoon and gets home after midnight. He parks a few cars at the beginning and then stands around (there are no chairs and they are not allowed to sit in their cars) until the end of the event. Each valet retrieves 4 or 5 cars and of course, all tips are earned at the end of the night. A typical night’s tips are $15 or $20. My youngest son, a junior in high school is working as a swim teacher. He was offered the position when a teacher noticed his kindness to a classmate who was struggling to learn how to tread water. He likes the job but is learning that standing in a cold pool while teaching young people the basics of swimming is not nearly as easy as it looks. Both of my children are learning essential so-called ‘soft skills’. The basics of showing up on time and ready to work, of course, but also how to be patient when someone is afraid of the water or tired, cranky, and doesn’t want to wait in line for their car. Working with the general public can be a master class in customer service. I’m thankful my children have these opportunities. Given how important these people skills are in the workplace, I wish more companies offered summer positions to teenagers. Did you have a summer job as a teenager? What was it? What was the best or worst part of the job? What did you learn? I would love to read about your experiences. If you see a teenager serving your ice cream, or parking your car or gathering your children at the end of the day at summer camp, give them a kind word, and maybe an extra dollar or two. They'll appreciate it more than you might realize. Here's to summer and summer jobs.

As parents, it's essential to ensure our kids are equipped with more than just customer service skills and knowledge of company procedures. Did you know that many employers tend to overlook safety protocols when hiring for summer jobs? That's right! And that's why we need to step up and educate our young adults about their rights and responsibilities when it comes to workplace safety. 🚧 It's crucial for our kids to ask questions about safety during the job interview process and understand that they have the right to refuse a task if it seems unsafe or puts them at risk. With minimal safety training provided for these summer positions, it's up to us to bridge the gap and empower our children to prioritize their well-being. 🔐 By equipping our young adults with basic safety knowledge, we can ensure they have the confidence to speak up and protect themselves in potentially risky situations. Let's not wait for accidents to happen – let's be proactive and proactive parents by having the conversation about workplace safety. 🌟 If you're a parent or know someone whose child will be joining the workforce this summer, please share this post and spread awareness about the importance of safety training. Together, we can make a difference and ensure a safe and enjoyable summer for everyone. Stay safe and have a fantastic summer! ☀️💪 #SafetyFirst #SummerJobSafety #ParentingTips #WorkplaceSafety #EmpowerOurYouth #OSHAinstructor #OSHA10Training #ConstructionSafety #OSHA10Class #FloridaSafety
