Our Career Connections program offers monthly career development programming at local High Schools to help students answer questions that they have regarding different career fields, education options, etc. Professionals participate in career panels to share their life experience and expertise with high school sophomores and juniors. Whether students have a detailed plan for life or are still trying to figure out what happens after high school, the insights of volunteers in the workforce can prove valuable in helping encourage and shape tomorrow's leaders.
Each semester, sessions take place at various High Schools in Montgomery County. Meetings start with a panel discussion and Q&A based on the month’s topic where guest speakers share their honest experiences and feedback. Each Q&A session is followed by small group discussions or individual student activities. This is an opportunity for professionals to share their personal stories. Students explore topics ranging from finding a career passion to job forecasting.
Once volunteers have signed up, they will receive a confirmation email from Ashley Ouellette, Program Director at EfTA.

Career Connections Interview Recording
Career Connections Interview Recording
For the 2025–2026 school year, we’re thrilled to continue our Career Recordings series, where volunteers share their career journeys and insights with students across Montgomery County. Professionals partake in pre-recorded professional interviews that will be shared with High Schools and on the EfTA Instagram Page as part of our Words of Wisdom Wednesday posts. Whether students have a detailed plan for life or are still trying to figure out what happens after high school, the insights of volunteers in the workforce can prove valuable in helping encourage and shape tomorrow's leaders.
As a volunteer, you will be sent a list of 4 questions that we would like for you to answer in a recorded video. We ask that you record your video horizontally and that your answers be no longer than 1.5 minutes long for each question.
If you have questions about the Career Connections Program please contact Ashley Ouellette at aouellette@efta-us.org
