I want this to be my career but....


Recommended Posts

:P

 

Hello Everybody!

 

First, I would like to say you can find anything on the internet. And who would have guessed about an activity director website. Very cool!

 

Second, how do I get a job? I know how blunt, but I'm having a tough time. I'm applying for all sorts of jobs and nothing. (Activity Director, Activity Assistant, etc. Nothing. )

 

This is my experience:

 

2007 Graduate of Emporia State University with a Degree in Science emphasis in Recreation. With minors of Health, Business, and Physical Education.

 

Volunteer at Presbyterian Manor for 1 year with activities.

 

Volunteer with Senior Olympics.

 

Used my dog as a theraputic dog..and she loved it.

 

** Please somebody point me in a direction of a job. Thanks for taking the time to read this.**

That would be great, I live in Spring,Texas-which is in Montgomery County, Texas. But I have been looking for a year and every place here wants a AD certification. I don't want to be a director, I just want to be an assistant. Any help would be apreciated. Thank you and God Bless

I live in Houston and every one of my AD friends including myself are not certified. I would suggest that you look in retirement homes, independent housing for seniors, adult day cares and community centers. At these places, you do not have any documentation whatsoever, no state regs, no paperwork really unless it is inhouse. They are wonderful places to work.
