  • Superhuman organizational skills and a self-starter attitude is a must. (It’s ok if you don’t know a few things, but you must be a quick learner).  Preference given to those who are articulate, have outstanding people skills and a craving to redefine how youth perceive social change.
  • You should also satisfy the specific requirements for each of the positions.
