ABOUT DREAMJOBBING

DREAMJOBBING HELPS STUDENTS DISCOVER THEIR CAREER PASSIONS AND THE PATH TO MAKE THEIR DREAMS REALITY 

YOUTH OF THE YEAR

​Many of the Boys & Girls Clubs chapters are using DreamJobbing as a tool for their Youth of the Year. The DreamJobbing program can be used as a tangible resource and requirement for Youth of the Year applicants as teen members can use the course at their own pace, grow their professional skills, and create local community awareness and involvement.

Various clubs are using the following from DreamJobbing to reinforce the Youth of the Year mission:

• Teach professional, personal branding

• Showcase 1- min. student video profiles/cover letters at galas & dinners

• Teach how to dress for success

• Teach how to conduct an informational interview with professionals

• Teens learn valuable career advice from local community professionals

• Teens discover their career paths using the DreamJobbing toolkit, and speak about this in their Youth of the Year essays and speeches

• The club can get the local community involved and spread awareness by having local professionals participate in the program.
