Recruiting never stops and is an integral part of your company’s future success.

Youth Apprenticeships are an additional resource that can be added to your candidate pipeline. A large percentage of the students who finish a Youth Apprenticeship continue with the YA employer full time or part-time as they attend college or technical school. By participating in Youth Apprenticeship, you can invest in two futures with an apprentice candidate who meets your company’s needs.

Hiring a Youth Apprentice takes no more time and resources than any effective recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding process normally used for bringing on new employees. Employers provide a mentor for each apprentice to oversee their training, set expectations that include a set of career area skills and provide ongoing performance feedback. The relationship between the apprentice and mentor is essential to the growth of the student and the increasing value they have to the employer.
