Employment

Welcome to Usdan's Employment page for our Summer Camp on Long Island. We are so happy that you are interested in learning more about working with us.

We strive to create a safe, welcoming place within which Usdan students have the freedom to build new friendships, explore nature, develop personal independence, and have fun, alongside their art making. To help create that environment, we look for job candidates who share our values of joy, curiosity, exploration, sustainability, empathy, and respect.

We accept applications on a rolling basis and work to match qualified candidates with the best position for them. Once we receive your application, if we think you’re a good fit for Usdan, a supervisor will reach out to you about scheduling an interview.
