Lifeguard Program
YMCA Lifeguard Program in New York City
Come to New York City and join a team of skilled
lifeguards who safeguard 14 miles of ocean beach and 52
outdoor swimming pools.
YMCA
UNIVERSITARIA offers you an opportunity to come to New
York City and take part in this program. Our lifeguards
return year after year because of the skills they develop,
the contacts they make, the chances for upward mobility,
and most importantly, because of the gratification they
feel saving lives.
Training/Test in New York City: Mid-May
Start/End Dates: 5/25-9/3/07
Starting Salary: $11.75/hour (Room/Board not included)
Application Deadline:
December 23, 2006
YMCA
UNIVERSITARIA is recruiting 500 life guards to work in New
York City!
How is
this different?
These participants will not be placed at
summer camps. They will work in New York City at the
swimming pools throughout the city and at the public
beaches.
The
Criteria is very high, therefore we need to target
swimming clubs, Physical Education students, Red Cross,
etc for this program.
To
qualify for the 40 hour Training Program applicants must:
-
Be
at least 18 years of age
-
Communicate effectively in English
-
Have
20/30 vision in one eye and 20/40 in the other, both
uncorrected
-
Swim
50 yards in 35 seconds or less.
Once
we have a strong pool (no pun intended) of applicants
(minimum 20) for the program YMCA-ICCP will send the
trainer to Romania to prescreen the candidates. If
the candidates pass they will come to New York in Mid-May
for a rigorous training course of 5-10 days. Upon
successful completion of the training course the life
guards will be placed throughout the city. ICCP will work
to find accommodations at YMCA facilities at a discounted
rate.
Life
Guards will be paid an hourly wage of $11.75/hour. On
average they will work 48 hours/week (6 days/week).
Room/board is not included. They will be paid for the days
during training.
Important:
Candidates should note that it will take a few weeks for
their first paycheck to be issued due to payroll issues.
All life guards should have enough pocket money to sustain
themselves in the city for 3-4 weeks.
The Application Fee to YMCA UNIVERSITARIA is $800.
Once a
life guard has worked in New York City successfully, they
are welcome back every year at a higher hour wage.
