The 5 Step Youth Application Process

Step 1 – Complete Online Application

Step 2 – Submit Required Documentation through DocCollect
After completing the online application youth will need to submit additional documentation. Please note, do not fax or mail in any additional documentation.

Step 3 – Parent Orientation
Follow this link for our Parent Orientation video. (This is an optional step.)

Step 4 – Attend Virtual Provider Fair and Complete a Job Selection Form
Provider Fair – May 2024
Eligible youth will receive an electronic invitation to attend this event.  Electronic invitations will be sent to the email address used to complete the online application. This event will showcase the programs available for youth to participate in during the summer program.

Job Selection Form
Eligible youth will have this form mailed to them at the address noted on their applications the week of May 13, 2024.

Step 5 – Summer Youth Employment Staff will Contact Eligible Youth Regarding Next Steps
Status update letters will be sent to all applicants who successfully complete the On-line Application. Letters will be mailed beginning the week of April 22, 2024 for applicants who have submitted all the required documentation by April 6, 2024.

Please note, summer job positions through this program are limited, and not every applicant that applies or is eligible will be hired. Youth selected will be contacted directly by RochesterWorks, the City of Rochester, or a program operator for a personal interview. Interviews will not be conducted at the time of application submission.

If you are not contacted by July 1, 2024, you have not been selected, but your application will be kept on file for consideration should additional opportunities become available.
