CALVERT COUNTY, Md. — Calvert County is hiring for several seasonal jobs across the Parks and Recreation Department. Now fully into the summer season, the county is looking for people to work as lifeguards, water safety instructors, and more on a part-time basis.
Seasonal positions are expected to run throughout the summer to support programs and locations across the county.
Interested applicants can apply online at the county employment website. Open seasonal positions include:
Lifeguarding and water safety jobs require specific certifications to qualify. A lifeguard certification takes 25 to 27 hours to complete and is typically offered on a limited but ongoing basis by the Red Cross, which provides a comprehensive course on water safety, lifesaving skills, and CPR.
Seasonal jobs like lifeguarding or camp counseling are ideal for high school and college students who can only commit to a job while school is out. It provides them with opportunities to make money and gain experience in the workforce.
A summer job can help young people develop a wide range of marketable skills. Depending on what field someone wants to pursue, a CPR certification, coaching kids, or leading a class can sharpen their résumé in later years. Summer jobs also help young people narrow down their interests and skills.
