@@ves5657 hi! Was there a specific program you were looking for the stipend for?

@@Gods-loved-1 Hi, unfortunately you need to be a US citizen or US permanent resident to join NCCC

Hi! I do think that people are often deterred from seasonal work because they feel like age is a factor, but in reality there are people of all ages working many different types of seasonal jobs! What it really comes down to is; are fit enough to get the job done and have the basic skill set needed for the job. I personally don't think you should have an issue finding a seasonal job due to your age. I hope you find one that provides you with a great experience.

I have not worked there but I have heard of it/seen it on coolworks. While I dont have any info about working there, I would check employee reviews on glassdoor or reddit!

That can be frustrating. It’s because it is the company’s job to take the job posting down but some do not, thus the job may remain for a while. Or the posting is there all the time because they are hiring that position year round/constantly.

Im so glad it helped!

@@theworkingexpat oh awesome you’re actually responding😄 cause I do have a follow up question for ya if you could help please! If the date of my application affects the campus I would be sent to, would that affect the site location for my rounds as well? Like if I go to the IA campus, would I most likely stay in the Midwest region, or is that decision more random?

@@alexbuswell3500 yes! So, if you are sent to the Pacific Region in CA then you will stay in the pacific regions states. It is possible to leave the region and go to other states but that would only be if its really needed.

@@theworkingexpat ok great thank you!

😂

Thats great! I hope you have a fantastic year and that you love art school!!

@@theworkingexpat thank you so much 😄

Hi! Yes, most seasonal jobs do their interviews over the phone, skype, or zoom!

@@theworkingexpat Thank you!

Hi! There are thousands of camps across the USA, so it comes down to location and type of camp you want to work at. I would recommend using the ACA website: find.acacamps.org/ to find a camp that works best for you. On the site you can find summer camps that match your criteria and then apply via their employee page.

Hi! My first year I was in the Pacific Region and my second year I was in the North Central region! I hope your year is going well, it is a wild ride but a really awesome one!

Hi! The regions each have a specific number of states allocated to them based on location, population, and a few other factors so they are able to cover/serve as many projects/communities as possible. It also helps with organization for project submissions and team assignments/support. I wish I could make a more detailed video because it's a great idea and there is a bit more to it. Unfortunately, at the moment I don't have time, but maybe in the future!

I am happy I could help! It can be hard to find info out there about NCCC but their projects are hands on, FEMA is more paperwork. Whatever you choose I hope you have a great service year!

Hi! I am so sorry, this was a couple years ago now so I do not remember exactly, unless it states in the video. I remember it was deducted from my pay check, maybe around $150 every two weeks if I remember correctly?

Hi! I know all of these programs require aa college degree. Some programs state that the college degree needs to be within so many years of applying.

Hi! I do not know of of many, but you can try to find commercial fishing jobs on fishingindustryjobs.com or Alaska Tourism Job boards

Hi! I am not super sure. The resort has many hotels that they own, but there are some that they do not. I would reach out to your hotel and ask this as a clarification question.

@@theworkingexpat okay thank you❤️❤️

What do you mean? If it is included or what its really like?

Hi! Depending on which on you go with yes, some will! They should explicitly say if they will in the FAQs on the application page!

That's so funny! I feel like lots of people who were in NCCC got the travel bug or got curious about the seasonal lifestyle. I hope you have an amazing time in Alaska, its so beautiful out there!

Hi! Usually it is your responsibility to get there and back. However there are some seasonal jobs that are very remote that might fly you out for the season/pay for your transportation if you complete the season. Those are more rare but possible!

@@theworkingexpat Thank you!

Thanks so much! I hope you have a wonderful season in Alaska!

Hi! This is not just for Americans! There are tons of seasonal work opportunities across the USA for international workers, and that includes Alaska! You just have to find a business/company that hires staff on a J1 VISA- and there are lots in Alaska that do! You can find them using seasonal work websites like Coolworks!

Hi! I am not sure if they have single occupancy now but I believe I had a few fiends with single rooms for a higher price.

Hi! Yes! There are companies and organizations that post on these websites that welcome international staff. You sometimes need to dig though job postings to see which ones are hiring international staff for the current season but they usually state it on the job posting or note that they have staff from around the world. I hope you find one that is perfect for you and you have a great USA experience! (Also, I love Argentina, it is a beautiful country and I hope to explore more of it one day!)

There are a lot of companies that hire people from outside of the USA and they do post jobs on these websites. You will need to comb through them to see which ones hire international workers.
