Need a job? Lifeguard tryout season is kicking off in Orange County [The Orange County Register]
Feb. 4 The office is the sand and surf.
The job? To keep beachgoers safe, in and out of the water.
Lifeguard agencies along Orange County’s coastline are gearing up for tryout season, a unique job application process that requires lifeguard hopefuls to beat out the competition during rigorous swim and run races. It also requires applicants to be able to withstand frigid water in the 50s that can send a chilling shock through the body.
With the ongoing coronavirus concern, tryouts will be a bit different this year for those who show up hoping to score a seasonal job at the beach.
