On Saturday, November 18th, the Versailles FFA had three members compete in the State Job Interview Contest.
The contest is designed to assist FFA members in the development of oral skills with the job application and interview process. Students had to create a resume and cover letter, fill out a job application pertaining to a specific agricultural job, complete an interview, write a follow up thank you letter and address an envelope in a timed session.
Members who participated included Rhylan Broerman, Andrew Wuebker, and Zoe Billenstein. Rhylan Broerman placed 3rd in the State FFA freshmen division. Andrew Wuebker placed 5th in the State FFA junior division. Zoe Billenstein placed 2nd in the State FFA senior division. Zoe, Andrew and Rhylan advanced to the state contest after placing 1st at the district contest.
A special thanks to Elizbeth Coons, David Harmon, Amy Hoying, Jacki Stonebarker, Beth Simons and Bernadetter Arehart for assisting in preparation for the job interview contest. Congratulations to the job interview participants!
