talented new hires for your workplace
For nearly two decades, Get Lit has inspired literacy and creativity in young people through award-winning curricula and programs, with participants going on to become local and national youth poet laureates, U.N. ambassadors, and employees at top entertainment/media organizations and nonprofits.
We’re thrilled to announce an exciting new opportunity for employment partners: a skilled and vetted creative employee pipeline of brilliant young professionals.
What is the creative career lab?
The Creative Career Lab is a year-long professional development program for diverse and ambitious young adults in Los Angeles. Thanks to a grant from the CA Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) through the California Community Reinvestment Grants (CalCRG) program, Get Lit is able to put extraordinary young people to work in dream jobs.
The Creative Career Lab is designed to help young adults develop both “soft skills” (communication, problem-solving, teamwork, and professionalism) and “hard skills” (training in digital campaigns, event production, Adobe Creative Suite, and Salesforce).
This program turns dreams into opportunities.
Entry-level employees trained to excel
Are you looking to hire entry-level creative talent that’s in tune with what’s hot, relevant, and inspiring? Here are the top 3 reasons you will want to hire a CCL Fellow:
1. Connect with Culture Curators — Get Lit’s Creative Career Lab Fellows don’t just know what’s trending, they set the trends.
2. Hire a Problem-Solver — In their book “Closing the Equity Gap,” venture capitalists Freada Kapor Klein and Mitch Kapor describe why “distance traveled” is a better indicator of success than “pedigree.” Coming from communities with limited access, our young professionals have honed their creativity through resilience and resourcefulness. Simply put, if they encounter a problem, they know how to pivot their way into a solution, fast.
3. Score a Win-Win for Your Team — By bringing a Get Lit CCL Fellow onto your team, you’re not just hiring a creative powerhouse — you’re investing in social impact.
