HHS Career Summit

HHS welcomed local business owners, Leadership Germantown, teachers, and motivational speakers to meet with our students and provide career advice. Students were able to attend sessions about ways to prepare for interviews. Tips included public speaking tips, LinkedIn advice, how to construct a resume, interview skills, and so much more. 

Certain students were also able to attend a networking lunch to get to know these community leaders one-on-one and ask more direct questions to build up their skillset ahead of college and job interviews. HHS is helping prepare students for their next steps!
