The City of Upper Arlington is calling all high schoolers, college students, adults, and retirees wanting to dip their toes into the workforce or just keep busy during the balmy months. The City's workforce is set to swell by more than 300 temporary positions, ensuring its summer programs and activities run smoothly. Available jobs range from outdoor pool management to summer camp leadership, according to a recent posting on the City's website.
Wage hunters will be keen to latch onto several sweeteners offered alongside these opportunities. They come with competitive wages and the kind of benefits that don't easily wilt under the midday sun. For instance, lifeguards can expect to receive free first-aid training and CPR certification, and those who stay on until the season's end will receive a bump in their hourly wage. "Participation in OPERS Retirement" and "invaluable work experiences for resume building" are some of the benefits of seasonal work with the city, according to the City of Upper Arlington website.
The availability of these jobs is vast and varied. Besides the aforementioned lifeguards, the City is also hiring office workers to keep things in line, recreation facility attendants to maintain the peace, and workers for the Northam Tennis facility for those with a love of the game. Then there's the Safety Town staff, essential in guiding the young ones through essential safety skills. All positions are a shot to not only serve the community but also to develop essential job skills that could be leveraged later on, such as leadership and supervision management abilities.
They've thrown together a Seasonal Employment Video to showcase the opportunities and convince the uncertain to make the leap. For those ready to splash into a summer of earning and learning, a full list of Job Opportunities is available, so it's just a matter of applying.
