Employment Skills LDE
FFA members who participate in the Employment Skills LDE (formerly Job Interview) develop, practice, and demonstrate skills needed in seeking employment in the agriculture industry, while examining career interests and opportunities in their local communities. The event is designed to recognize outstanding FFA members for their ability to prepare and interview for real-world employment opportunities. Part of the preparation includes creating a cover letter, résumé and completing a job application. Participants also show their ability to think on their feet through a networking activity.
Job Application, Cover Letter, Resume, and Job Description need to be submitted by 11:59 PM on April 15th, 2024
