Summer Institute for High School Juniors & Graduating Seniors!

Based on Lindt’s continuing need to hire and the opportunity to provide valuable opportunities to students, we are again offering a unique Summer Institute program for high school juniors and graduating seniors. Lindt, located in Stratham, NH is a recognized leader in the market for premium quality chocolate. Lindt has built a reputation as one of the most creative companies crafting premium chocolate.

The Lindt Summer Institute Program combines full-time paid experience, an education program including hands-on learning, job shadowing and mentoring in advanced manufacturing. Participants will also be registered into a nationally recognized US Department of Labor Registered Apprenticeship Program. Graduating seniors who are successful in the program will have the opportunity to join Lindt as a full-time employee, and juniors may have the opportunity to continue working on a limited basis throughout the following school year with potential full-time employment with Lindt after high school. There is no cost to the students that are selected to participate in the program – it is a paid apprenticeship program ($16/hour on first shift or $17/hour on second shift + 10% shift differential).

I’ve attached a program letter and flyer on Lindt’s Summer Institute, including key dates and deadlines. If you could get this distributed to students who you think might be interested, we would certainly appreciate it. Also, if you have a way of getting this information out to parents, it may engage more students.

Students should complete an on-line application by going to www.jobs.lindtusa.com and searching for #22-623 “Lindt Summer Institute”.

Applications deadline is May 16^th.

Interested in becoming an Actuary?

An actuary is a business professional who uses mathematical and

financial tools to help identify and manage risk, so it's a great career

for students who are strong mathematically but who are not necessarily

interested in teaching. It's also great for students who like business

and have good math aptitude.

I run a one-week summer program for rising high school seniors who want

to learn more about the profession. Here's a link to the program web site:

http://www.lvc.edu/academics/summer-community-programming/actuarial-science-camp/

Because of Covid, we're running this year's camp remotely and reducing the price from 950 to 600. However, we're preserving the vital aspects of the experience:

• students will work in teams and present their solutions to relevant problems;

• practicing actuaries will give real time presentations and work with students on mini-projects;

• RAs will facilitate co-curricular programming for students.

If you or your students have questions, or if you'd rather not receive this message, please let me know.

Cheers,

Patrick Brewer

I hope you've had a great summer. I wanted to reach out again with information about our fall internship program for Joyce Craig's mayoral campaign. We had a really successful intern cohort this summer of 12 students from six high schools and universities, and look forward to a new group starting in the fall.

Interns work with campaign staff, voters, and volunteers to help build our grassroots campaign, and have the opportunity to learn about many aspects of political campaigns, including organizing, finance, and communications.

As the school year starts up, please forward to students who would be interested. I'm happy to sign off on community service or career exploration forms for them, the internship suits both. Our application is at bit.ly/JCInternship and I've attached a job description and flyer. Thank you for passing on!

Thank you,
