Career Connections March 11th
Career Connections
Career Connections is an annual Salem-Keizer Schools district-wide event that provides high school students a forum to hone their job interviewing skills that they have been learning and practicing in the classroom with employers from the local business community.
Career Connections is a partnership with our six area high schools and Ready to Learn Ready to Work. Participation in this highly anticipated event satisfies one of a student’s career related learning requirements for graduation.
A variety of career related activities are available to the 600+ junior and senior high school students that attend:
- 2-3 mock interviews with feedback from a pool of 120 local business people and potential employers
- Tour the Vendor Fair to talk with 50 employers, trades associations, higher education and training programs
- Tour the Grand Hotel and Salem Conference Center behind the scenes
