Applications for Star Island’s summer 2023 seasonal positions — Pelicans — are now being accepted. The process is fairly simple, but differs slightly if this will be your first time as a Pelican or if you are returning. Here are some helpful links and information for 2023 applicants:

First Time Applicants

First time applicants are encouraged to learn more about the application process as they begin, and consider the different positions available.

When first time applicants are ready, fill out an online application. The priority deadline for applications is January 23, 2023.

Along with an application, first time applicants are also required to submit two reference forms. These could be form an employer/supervisor, professor, advisor, or school guidance counselor, principle, teacher, minister, or religious education director, etc. Please note that references from family members will not be considered. Applications will not be considered complete until both references are received. For priority deadline applicants, references must be received by January 31, 2023.

Returning Applicants

If you’ve previously worked as a Pelican, you are considered a returning applicant. Returning Pels are also encouraged to learn more about the application process as a reminder. While you might have an idea of what crew you’d like to work on, you’re still encouraged to consider the different positions available.

When returning applicants are ready, fill out an online application. The priority deadline for applications is January 23, 2023.

If you are interested in a supervisory-level position, a letter of interest is required. Email that letter to office@starisland.org by January 23, 2023.
