Seymour High School seniors begin senior seminars

August 15, 2024

On Aug. 14 and 15, seniors at Seymour High School have been participating in senior seminars with faculty from Ivy Tech Community College in Columbus.

Each day, different groups of seniors have been attending three sessions: Career awareness and finding purpose, what employers want by industry and résumé and LinkedIn.

During the other two sessions Sept. 18 and 19, there will be three different topics.

By that point, the seniors will be ready to create their résumé in English class that they will submit for when they participate in the annual senior mock interviews the week of Oct. 28 to Nov. 1.

JCIDC partners with SHS for the senior mock interviews, helping pair each student with an interviewer who works in the field in which they are interested.
