<p>Vderon, If I had seen an add on Craigslist for such a job ie: “talent” I would have thought that it was perhaps someone trying to enroll someone in a acting school, or selling “headshots” for modeling. In other words, I would have thought that it was a scam.</p>
<p>My 17 y/o landed a paid job as a camp counselor. I cannot tell you how competitive this job was! I know some very responsible nice teens that are the same age that were turned down. There were just more applicants than slots. Last summer my son could not find a job (age 16). </p>
<p>So I assume that colleges expect their students to contribute financially to their college educations by earning 2,000 over the summer. Where will they find these jobs? In many areas of our country, few employers are hiring. There are many middle aged laid off people with families to feed who need these jobs too!</p>
