Career readiness activities for high school students

Career readiness starts well before a first job interview. These resources help students work out what they are interested in, research careers and colleges, write a resume and a professional email, fill out forms correctly and handle the first days of a new job.

They work in CTE, advisory, English, counseling and transition programs, and the role-plays and scenario cards make the soft skills concrete enough to practice.
