How do I sign up?

Interview and Application

FIRST YEAR Counselors and CITs

Please come to Grace Lutheran to be interrogated at a short interview on Saturday, March 27 in the church library, anytime between 9-11 a.m.

Please DO NOT send your application, but instead, bring the completed form to the interview. Click here to download a 2010 CIT/Counselor application for first year counselors and CITs.

If you are hired, and you are finishing grades 9 - 11, you must also apply for a Work Permit from your high school. Work permit request forms will be included in your hire notification e-mail.

Work permits for hired Counselors must be turned in no later than Monday, May 3. (CITs do NOT need work permits.) You cannot apply for a work permit before you are hired.

RETURNING Counselors and CITs 

If you have worked at CMT before, fill out the online. NO paper applications will be accepted.

Kären will send confirmation when she receives your application. If you do not hear from her, that means she didn't get it and you need to complete it again. Please make sure something is in her hands before Friday, March 26.

If you are hired, and you are finishing grades 9 - 11, you must also apply for a Work Permit from your high school. Work permit request forms will be included in your hire notification e-mail.

Work permits for hired Counselors must be turned in no later than Monday, May 3. (CITs do NOT need work permits. Counselors who are 18 years or older, or who have graduated from high school do NOT need work permits.) You cannot apply for a work permit before you are hired.

You will be informed of your status, hired or not, by April 9. Contacting Kären before April 9 will not expedite the process of wading through 250 applications. Please be considerate.

All PAID positions (not CITs) need to turn in a W-4 form for payroll withholding of Income Tax no later than Monday, May 3.

NEW hires must also complete an I-9 form, and turn it in with a photocopy of your passport, or if you do not have a passport, a copy of both your drivers license and birth certificate.

Counselors and CITs

Counselor employment forms (W4, Work Permit, I9) ARE due on Monday, May 3. That gives you a little over 3 weeks from your hire date to turn in your paperwork. Please do not wait until the last minute to apply for your work permit - the high school office appreciates the courtesy of a timely application. We always have a waiting list for counselor positions - please keep that in mind. CITs do NOT need work permits. High school graduates and those 18 and older do NOT need work permits. The rest of you do!
