Help CenterNow your application is at the 'Ready to Hire' stage you'll see a new status next to where your stage is displayed. This status highlights where you are at in the hiring journey.
Visible - Camp Directors can see your profile (You'll still be able to edit and add more to it).
On review - A camp is interested in your profile. You might start to receive emails or phone calls from camps so keep an eye out!
Confirmed - Well done! You've got your camp but we're just finalising a few confirmation details with them.
Placed - Congratulations! Get ready for Canada.
Do I have to do an Introductory video?
We love introductory videos and our summer Camp Director’s love them even more so we encourage you to upload one. Some camps will only view participants profiles who feature a video! So make sure you have yours to quickly increase your chances of getting placed.
Can I contact summer camps I'm on review with?
Yes, you can. Most camps have contact details available on their website. Feel free to send an email to introduce yourself, and mention that you have noticed you are on review with them. We’ve heard some great placement stories which started with a short email.
I was on review, and now I am not and I didn't hear from the camp, what do I do?
Don't worry, people can be on review a number of times before they are placed. It is completely normal. Here are some of the reasons you may fall off review:
-
The camp director has filled the position they were hoping to interview you for
-
The placement team has not heard from the camp director, and the review period expired.
-
Your skills, availability, student status or experience do not match what they are looking for at this time.
-
The camp director accidentally hit the wrong button when they were trying to click into your application - we try our best to avoid this.
What if I don't want to go to the camp that has me on review'?
We advise you to take every interview opportunity you get, as it’s very hard to judge a camp by its website, and you get much more of a real feel for the camp at the interview. You should connect with the Community Success Team and talk through your concerns. We recommend doing this before responding to the camp director.
How should I prepare for my camp interview?
Camp directors are enthusiastic, fun, and passionate individuals and they want to hire individuals who are also fun, enthusiastic, and passionate! Be yourself and let your personality shine through. Talk about what you can bring to the camp and how excited you will be to be part of their team.
We also advise that you go onto their website and do some research on what they offer. You can ask questions about their schedule, days off, unique activities they offer, etc. If you go in with questions and your personality, that's a great start.
Can I go back to 'on review' with a camp I previously spoke to?
If you were offered an interview or a position at a camp and turned down their offer, then it is unlikely we will be able to place you back on review with the same camp again. The camp likely hired another individual for this role.
