Sub-District Job Interview Career Development Event

The Floriculture and Natural Resources programs participated in a Chapter Job Interview Competition the last few weeks. Students were judged on filling out a job application, their cover letter and resume, a 10 minute face-to-face interview and a hand-written follow-up letter. Thank you so much to Jean Emery-Emery’s Flowers and Company, Doreen Kuzma-Denver Wholesale Florist, Josh Miller-Toledo Botanical Gardens, Adrienne Mullens– Forest View Ranch, Matt Shanahan– Boy Scouts Toledo Area, and Jim Jackson– Toledo City Forestry Division Council for taking time out of their busy schedules to conduct the face-to-face interviews. Here’s what the students had to say!

I think that I did a great job with the interview being that it was my first time. The interviewer was really nice and respectful. Overall the interview was a great experience and I really learned a lot. I know later on it life it will be useful.”- Sharice Cosper, Floriculture 2

“During my interview I was nervous! I like how the guy was so nice to me and he understood that I am new at interviewing. I think the advice that he gave me will help me overcome being nervous in the future. I just need to let me confidence that I have show more and just be myself. I think this experience will help me in the future when I have a real interview.”- Stephanie Mason, Floriculture I

Congratulations to Floriculture 1 students Jasmine Cole, Tyrena Depp, Sara Padgett, and Krista Woodruff, Floriculture 2 students Tami Crockett and Sharice Cosper, Natural Resources I students Gabrielle Roberts, Te’Airia Baldwin, Devon Webster and Macie Zeller, and Natural Resources II students Shaniece Langston and Jordan Enis who will compete December 1st in the Sub-District Job Interview Career Development Event.
