Schools bring students to Hendricks CareerTek to learn all about the many different career pathways throughout construction. Throughout the process, students learn the skills needed to build a house from the ground up. Students will experience all facets of construction including concrete, carpentry, roofing, framing, plumbing, electrical, and interior/exterior finishing work.
Here, students get to level up their resume and soft skills in a fun mock interview experience with real local professionals! They’ll practice essential skills like dressing to impress, mastering that perfect handshake, and nailing body language and eye contact—all in a friendly, supportive environment. To wrap it all up, they’ll even send handwritten thank-you notes to their interviewers, making a lasting impression. It’s a fantastic way to gain confidence and get ready for the real deal!
Join us for a lively monthly gathering of career reps from local school districts! It’s the perfect chance to connect and share insights—all over a delicious, uninterrupted lunch. Plus, we bring in professional resources from the community (and beyond) to foster those connections as well as talk about hot topic items. It’s not just a meeting; it’s an engaging opportunity to learn, network, and enjoy some great food together!
