Kilgore High School Career and Technical Education department recently hosted their second Bulldog Backers panel discussion.
This panel focused on the program’s Business Management Pathway and guests included Nichole Cole from BCS Business Computer Solutions, Verenice Ordorica with Edgar’s Big Taco and Circle Cafe, and Connie Perez (Class of 2007) who is an HR manager from Eastman Chemical.
Topics that were discussed included what employers look for in an applicant including their high school transcripts and posts to social media. Students were also able to learn about some high wage/high demand occupations in the Kilgore area and scholarships and internships that are available from Eastman Chemical.
Kilgore High School is very grateful to the Kilgore Area Chamber of Commerce and all the community members who volunteered their time to visit with the students.
The next panel discussion is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 29 and will include marketing and sales students.
