become an EMPLOYMENT PARTNER
A cohort of passionate and prepared young adults are ready to join your team!
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 young adults in Los Angeles who have been disproportionately affected by the War on Drugs. 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
In June 2025, our first graduating cohort will be ready to put their career training and job readiness skills to work. As an employment partner, you will have access to these bright, motivated young adults and be able to offer full-time employment.
We'll help you find talented young professionals ready to start in positions like:
- Social Media Coordinators
- Office Coordinators
- Development Coordinators
Let's partner to bring extraordinary young professionals to your workplace!
We are so excited for this new opportunity to bring equity and excellence to your workplace! To learn more about becoming an employment partner, fill out the form below.
