What is LINK Summer Jobs?

LINK Summer Jobs is a program of part-time seasonal jobs specially adapted for students of the LINK Edu Alliance, aged 15–19. In this way, LEA gives students the opportunity to make the most of their summer vacation, earn their first money and salary, acquire their very first professional experience working in one of the departments of the LINKgroup company, and develop important professional and interpersonal skills that will prove extremely useful in their future careers. 

The Summer Jobs program will be implemented over two months, during the summer vacation. Working 4 hours a day (or 20 hours per week), students will have the opportunity to earn pocket money. Students can decide whether their professional engagement with the employer (LINKgroup) in the chosen position will last one or two months. The shifts change on a monthly basis – from July 1 to August 1; and from August 1 to September 1 depending on the chosen duration of the employment. 

LEA students will have the opportunity to acquire their first professional experience in various positions in Marketing, Human Resources and Production departments – and each job can be adapted to suit their preferences and abilities.  

LINK Summer Jobs is designed to cooperate with a youth cooperative, so students will be paid standardized wages as youth workers.

Why are young people so important in work culture?

Young people, i.e. high school students, may lack actual work experience – but they largely make up for it with quality in all other aspects. 

Young people aged 15-19 are counted among young talents, whose skills and talents are still developing and need work to achieve their full potential – and there is no better way to do this than to give them the opportunity to advance professionally by performing specific tasks.   

In this way, the LINK Edu Alliance promotes the importance of youth in the labor market and demonstrates how important they are in all aspects of modern business. The most important quality of young people is their enthusiasm for learning new things – and it is a two-way process because the main idea of LEA education is to learn from each other while working together.
