Now Hiring: Teen Tech Aides

The Riverbend Public Library is looking for two high school students to help visitors use computers, printers, and other technology at the Main Branch this summer.

Requirements: You must be 16 or older by June 1. You must be available for at least two of the three weekly shifts: Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. You must be comfortable explaining things patiently to adults, including people who have never used a computer. Speaking a language other than English is a plus but is not required.

Pay and dates: $11 per hour, June 9 to August 8.

How to apply: Pick up an application at the front desk of any branch, or download it from the library website.

Why “A letter of recommendation” is correct

This is a detail question about a workplace document. The "How to apply" section says to return the application "along with one letter of recommendation from a teacher or employer." Headings help readers find this kind of detail quickly.

Why the other answers are wrong

A copy of their school schedule — A schedule is not requested; applicants only need to be available for two shifts.
Proof that they speak a second language — A second language is a plus but is not required.
A list of the computer programs they know — This is not mentioned in the posting.
