    • @completecampcounselor
      @completecampcounselor  Před rokem +4

      Honestly - and I mean this in the nicest way - if you were able to understand this video without subtitles then your English is probably well enough. Camp directors understand that one of the main reasons you're doing this program is to work on your English skills, and so as long as you can communicate well enough to keep everyone safe and learning to start the summer, you'll be fine and the rest will come.
      Let me know how it went!

      I’m also from Colombia and just applied for the 2023 summer camp counselor program. Hopefully it was a good decision since I’m a little bit shy and want to leave that behind plus have a really good summer!! Your video was very helpful and I’ll definitely take into account all of the tips you just gave us:)

    I applied to the CA program with my friend. I will have an interview with a camp next week. Should I say at the end of the interview that I want to go with my friend or should I wait for a job offer?

    • @completecampcounselor
      @completecampcounselor  Před rokem

      I would make sure the job is one that you're OK doing without your friend, first. Camp directors can sometimes he hesitant about "package deal" friends/couples because they wonder if one doesn't work out will I lose both staff members?
      Just casually make it known that this is your preference, but be OK with it if it doesn't end up happening. Your director will thank you for addressing the elephant in the room and being mature about it.

    Went through a 40ish phone screening interview a few days ago with HR. I now have to do a full 45 minute to an hour interview online... I was panicking during the phone call so I'm nervous about being on camera during the interview 🥲
