Know any young whipper snappers looking for summer work?
Wednesday, March 19th, 2008As a teenager, wouldn’t it have been great if the first thing on your resume had been a job with the Washington State Department of Ecology? Personally, the first thing on my resume was babysitting. I’m guessing Ecology would have looked better.
The job is with the Ecology’s Youth Corps program and is for teens between the ages of 14 and 17. The job itself is helping Ecology to clean up roads and highways throughout the state, by picking up litter. It’s an annual program but this year Ecology didn’t get enough applicants.
There are two work sessions: one between June 23 and July 18, and one between July 21 and August 15. Applicants work 7.5 hours a day from 7:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Applications must be turned in by April 8 and are available here.
