Item: 6 <br />ver <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Parks and Recreation Commission <br />FROM: Steve Benoit, Recreation Manager <br />DATE: April 13, 201 I <br />SUBJECT: Staff Report <br />Hot ToQic(g) of the Month <br />Staff conducted two group interviews in March for summer recreation positions. To be <br />considered for a position, interviewees must attend one of the two scheduled group <br />interviews. Prospective recruits are told to dress in tennis shoes and comfortable clothing <br />because they will be asked to do a variety of active tasks and will be asked to speak in front <br />of a small group of people. Activities are planned for team building and get to know you <br />exercise's along with a crafr type project that would show who is a leader in a group and <br />what type. <br />During the group interviews we look for who has interacted with different types of people, <br />how they interacted in front of the group of people and if they are team players. Get to <br />know you questions are asked during group time or on the side when there are small <br />conversations going on. <br />The atmosphere is kept low key and fun, which helps keep the candidates comfortable. We <br />have found that all age groups of candidates do well in this setting, if they are willing to <br />"play" in an interview, they will be willing to "play" for work whether it be with small <br />children in sports or summer camp. <br />March Programs <br />• Karate <br />• Women's Volleyball <br />• Co-Rec Volleyball <br />• Pre-School Tumbling <br />• Parent and Tot Tumbling <br />• Parent and Tot Open Playtime <br />• Jump -Jive -Exhale <br />• Open Gym <br />• Eager Elks Soccer <br />• Eager Elks All Sorts of Sports <br />• Keepsake Egg Tray Parent & <br />Child Class <br />• 3 on 3 Basketball League <br />
