Direct Placement and Returner fees
Fee’s payable for Direct Placements and Returners can be submitted by camp or the participant. Camp indicates this when completing our online agreement and profile. This needs to be one consistent policy. We cannot charge some participants for processing and not others from the same camp. If you wish to do this, you should make arrangements directly with the participant.
We Strongly recommend camps have returner and direct placement applicants pay for their processing. If for any reason, these applicants withdraw after processing, the fees are still payable.
There is no refund for Direct Placements and Returners due to the fact the applicants have not been directly recruited and managed by our team, and often direct placement applicants drop out after processing.
NOTE: All salaries are MINIMUM. Potential staff members may negotiate a higher rate. In addition, they must be paid in accordance with federal and state laws.
