Juniors and Seniors Explore Future Career Options
Deerfield Beach High is committed to helping students prepare for life after high school and to enter the workforce with experience under their belts.
Juniors and seniors at Deerfield Beach High are presented with an opportunity to explore paid internships, apprenticeships/trade licensing, entry-level careers with Broward County Governmental Agencies through the Annual Job Fair. In addition to the Spring College Fair, that will help students consider their options post-graduation to further education.
The job fair is encouraged to be looked at like a job interview meaning, resumes are encouraged and should be completed before the event date on March 11, 2022.
For the students that need a sample resume, there is a multitude posted around the school to inspire others. They can be found in the 150 hallway boards, main lobby showcase, Canvas BRACE place, Naviance, BRACE office, and announcements on Remind.
“Right now, I don’t know what career I’m leaning towards so I’m hoping this career fair will help me choose and find more information on my options for a career and also what kind of work environment I want to be in, whether that be hands-on or in an office.” said junior, Thania Geffrard, one of the many students that feel this way towards career options.
Many booths will be open to students on this day. Not only will Broward County Government Agencies be in attendance but so will Fortune 500 companies such as Walmart, Amazon, and The Hard Rock
Alongside, Broward County Governmental Agencies will be Fortune 500 companies such as Walmart, Amazon, and The Hard Rock!
Students are expected to choose and, in doing so, they’re given a load of majors, careers, jobs, etc. And that can get overwhelming, especially if they don’t experience it firsthand. This job fair allows students to get familiar with the options for their future while helping them do it with guidance providing less stress. The hands-on experience can be a defining factor in someone’s decisions, and they can get that experience through this job fair.
