FAQ’s
Do I have to be a student to be an intern?
No you do not, all you need is the desire to learn! We are looking for people interested in pursuing their career and bettering their understanding of our event.
I don’t live in Santa Barbara, can I work remotely?
Yes, this is an option, but not for all positions. Your location may be a factor depending on the job, and we’ll consider it when offering job placements.
If I’ve volunteered with Lucidity before, or if I’ve applied to be a volunteer, can I apply to be an intern?
Yes! If you have experience with the organization, that is awesome (but not required!). Applying for this program will not affect your volunteer application, but you cannot get accepted for both. If you are not accepted to this program, you can apply to volunteer. Volunteer applications will be available in the winter.
I want to be staff. Can I achieve that through being an intern?
Being an intern means that you get a special experience getting involved in the event. Many people who love to get involved do so year after year, in a lot of different ways. Our staffing is carefully curated, and we are always interested in finding cool people to co-create with!
My skills/experience don’t necessarily fit into one of the positions listed, but I am still interested. Can I apply?
Of course!! Send us your resume. You never know where your skills will fit, and it never hurts to try!
