The Job Interview Career Development Event (CDE) is a FFA contest that members can compete in. Each member submits a resume and writes a cover letter before the contest. At the contest they complete a job application for an agriculture position on site and participate in an interview. After the interview they write a follow- up letter. Members must win the district contest to move onto the state contest. State winning individual advances to National competition that is held during the National FFA Convention, The state winner also receives a $1000 scholarship.
Racine FFA Members competed in the D10 Job Interview CDE which was held at Symmes Valley on October 26, 2023. Each school is only allowed to send one member per grade level. Sophomore, Hunter Jarrell got 9th place in the contest; Junior, Hannah Turley got 13th place in the contest; and Senior, Katie got 13th place in the contest. Great work to our members on competing in a contest that they will be able to use for years to come.
