On Wednesday, (November 6th) Cisne FFA members Kadence Smith and Claire Cannon competed in the District V Job Interview Leadership Development Event hosted by SIU-Carbondale. Kadence Smith won the Varsity Division which included contestants from ten southern Illinois schools who had advanced from either placing first or second at the section level. In the Junior Varsity Division, Claire Cannon finished 5th of the eight schools represented.
JV contestants were also accepted based on section rankings. The competition required members to submit a cover letter, resume, and job description prior to the event. Onsite requirements included a personal interview with a panel of judges, completion of a job application, and writing a thank-you letter. As district winner, Smith will advance to the state event which will be held in conjunction with the Illinois FFA State Convention.
