Sixty-three business professionals helped JCIDC with the annual senior mock interviews at Seymour High School.

Conducted the week of Oct. 27 to 31, 289 students participated in a one-on-one interview with someone who works in the career field of their interest after high school.

JCIDC would like to give a big thanks to SHS for allowing us to help coordinate this annual program, and thanks to the students who signed up and participated and all of the business professionals who took time out of their schedules to help with this effort.
