We will send you a quick message through Idealist to say hello and check your availability for the upcoming 4th Friday.
We encourage you to give our Site Supervisor Leila Santamaria a quick call at (951) 241-7221. Even just five minutes on the phone helps us get to know each other and make sure you know exactly what to expect on your first day.
Before your first shift you will complete a short background check and attend a brief orientation. Both are straightforward and our team walks you through everything.
On the day of, wear comfortable clothing and closed toe shoes. We will have everything else you need ready for you.
One thing we want to be upfront about. Because this is a small team of 5, your consistency really matters. If something comes up and you cannot make it, just give us a heads up so we can fill the spot. Our neighbors are counting on us and we want to make sure no one is left waiting.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
