For the past 2 months our students have been preparing for and participating in interview events. 300+ students wrote industry resumes, took part in internal mock interviews, and then participated in industry-specific interviews with 30+ local employers. Thank you to all our students, staff, and local business partners who made this real-world experience happen! The future is bright for our local Charlottesville workforce! @cvilleschools @albemarlecountypublicschools #cte
