Are You Prepared For The Summer Camp Hiring Crisis?
Finding, hiring, and keeping great camp staff is harder than ever. Camp professionals are struggling with:
A shrinking talent pool
Traditional job boards aren’t bringing in enough qualified candidates.
High staff turnover
Seasonal employees often don’t return, forcing you to start from scratch each year.
Unengaged staff
Today’s workforce wants more than just a summer job—they want purpose, growth, and community.
Slow, outdated hiring processes
Manually reviewing applications and relying on old methods wastes time and resources.
