Dear Applicant, Thank you for your interest in the Quest Scholars Program. By exposing these students to national experts on the environment and medicine, assisting them in the college application process, and following them through college to top graduate and professional schools, Quest fosters future leaders who could impact their neighborhoods and other disenfranchised communities on local and global levels. To date, one hundred percent of Quest graduates have enrolled in college, and ninety-nine percent of our graduates have either completed or are still enrolled in school. Eighty percent of Quest graduates from the past four years now attend Stanford, providing a strong Quest community on campus and fostering a warm and positive environment for Quest students and staff members. Consequently, you can expect working for Quest to bring high emotional rewards in addition to a sense of accomplishment and pride in your work.
Positions are very rewarding both personally and professionally.
The friendships formed go well beyond the summer program. We are currently recruiting for several positions at the summer residential program, as well as for several positions that involve year-round or continued employment. The job descriptions and responsibilities vary widely, and are described on the following pages. In general, we are looking for motivated innovators who would like to put their permanent imprint on the foundation of Quest, and on the lives of its participants and graduates. The program is staffed almost entirely by students, and we seek energetic people who enjoy working with a diverse group of youth, and with the process of creation.
