John Jay Senior Edge!

Preparing for life beyond graduation can be challenging. The John Jay Senior Edge program can help.  Senior Edge assists undergraduate and graduate students in their final semester at John Jay College in their search for employment options after graduation. The program will equip students with the core skills, tools and resources they will need to conduct a successful job search. Eligible students will be in their final semester at the college and available for all 4 sessions.

Professionalism in the Workplace!

During the week of September 2^nd, nearly 200 Federal Work Study students attended 6 professionalism workshops spread out over 4 days in North Hall’s cafeteria. Group discussions included topics related to workplace expectations, office attire, punctuality, and appropriate behavior. 

After attending the workshops students were then given permission to begin working on the John Jay campus. Much rejoicing occurred.
