CareerMe.org offers a program for students to create their job shadow mentor’s home page career profile and publish on either the National homepage or your state/regional homepage. This is an excellent opportunity to share with other students across the country about the career and the company.

 

The Program Help and Templates area provides instruction and template documents to be used by the student as they participate in this program. The Examples area provides samples of pages and their components, as well as examples of an interview and a report. Finally, a Links section is included for further reference on job shadowing.
