TIC staff members enjoy creative independence, a stimulating
and spirited atmosphere, and the camaraderie of brilliant and
energetic peers. They work great hours: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for the 8-week season, and they earn
excellent pay. We recruit highly qualified staff
members beginning each January, and we usually finish hiring by
May. Please read the general requirements below and check out the
JOB DESCRIPTIONS before you apply:
DO NOT APPLY UNLESS YOU ARE AVAILABLE THE WHOLE SUMMER, INCLUDING STAFF TRAINING DAYS.
All TIC jobs require energy, creativity, patience, and a real
interest in children and adolescents. Experience in teaching or coaching is an asset.
TIC runs three DAY CAMPS in the Washington DC metro area with NO
RESIDENT FACILITIES. Preference is given to local residents, but out-of-towners who
can find their own housing may apply.
International staff are hired only through agencies (such as
BUNACAMP, CAMP LEADERS, or CAMP AMERICA) which provide pre-screening, appropriate visas,
travel arrangements and health insurance.
Preference is given to applicants 18 years of age or older, but we make
occasional exceptions for highly qualified high school seniors or graduates, especially if
they have been through our Counselor-in-Training program.
NEW COUNSELORS AT TIC MAY NOT WORK IN BOTH COMPUTERS AND SPORTS. It is
difficult enough to learn to do one job well, without trying to do two jobs. Returning
counselors who are qualified in both areas may get to "travel" between computers and
sports with either the juniors or the seniors.
If you have any questions about the hiring process or the status of your application, please contact the Executive Director, Emily Riedel:
emily@ticcamp.com.
