Page History

This page is to help answer questions for supervisors of LT interns and LT directors for LT 2019 2020 Interns registration. Here are some important dates and info below!

All LT interns who will be employed by Reliant must apply online at goapply.reliant.org using the Intern/Resident/Associate application to be a paid intern during their summer as an intern at LT. 

Interns may apply at any time up until the deadline.  Application deadline is Dec. 21, 20182019. 

*Deadlines differ for Volunteer Interns.

...

• LT Directors, be prepared to give Reliant the LT fee for interns during our Hiring Decision Call with you (by Dec. 2019). This fee is necessary to calculate their support goal. 
• LT interns do not pay for their LT fee directly. The Reliant summer intern program will do an internal transfer for their LT payment and they will only pay out of pocket if they have insufficient funds. See Staff and Intern Event Payments. 
• The LT intern's application with Reliant (from goapply.reliant.org) serves also as their LT participation application. They do no not need to also fill out an LT Participation application like the other LT participants.  The Reliant summer program coordinator (Sarah Swann) will manually add all accepted interns into the LT program registration.

A Volunteer Intern is one who interns at LT, but is not employed by Reliant. Another term for it might be Associate Intern. They will go through the same application process as regular LT applicants (on events.reliant.org) however they will be asked to receive a background check as well as signing a few more additional forms than required by the normal LT applicant due to the role the volunteer will have with added leadership and responsibility within the program.  Those additional forms include the sexual harassment policy, code of conduct, statement of faith, and a statement acknowledging that they are not receiving medical insurance, workers compensation or other benefits. 

• Application: Since the volunteer intern will be using the same application as regular LT applicants, the LT director will need to email the Reliant summer program coordinator (Sarah) to let them know that a volunteer intern is applying. Due to liability reasons, all LT interns (including those that do not wish to be hired as a Reliant employee) will need to fill out an LT application prior to arrival at LT and will not be able to begin volunteering until the background check has been completed. 

  • Fee: The application fee is $50. This goes to off-set the costs to run background checks. If the director chooses they may request to add an event program fee for the LT volunteer to pay as well.  That fee will be manually added to their event registration based on the director's request.  The director/finance administrator will also receive an invoice from the summer program coordinator to approve for the cost of the background check to be charged to their LT event fund.
