Management wants to be there and works to help you succeed.

City year new york reviews. City year is not a normal job it is a year of service to the students hence the stipend pay. City year can be a excellent experience of growth and development. Only lasts as long as the school year but staff give you plenty of opportunity for professional development and help you with job searches.

They are really incompetent when it comes to the just basic needs of their employees not even considered employees because of americorps language which helps exclude us from benefits as well as any really union protections. City year is an extremely taxing and challenging year but i would still recommend it to anyone because the change you make in the schools is phenomenal. It all depends on your interests do your research and make sure this is the right step for you to make.

The students really respond to having young people as role models when it can be difficult when they are often left down by adult figures in their lives. I say this because if you are joining this organization and have no interest in working with kids or in education you will be miserable. City year is very multidimensional and you have the opportunity to build leadership skills as well as make amazing connections.
