Youth Business Alliance Volunteer Recruitment VISTA id-4700

                            <p>Youth Business Alliance provides career and business education programs to high school students in low-income neighborhoods throughout Los Angeles and the surrounding area. Volunteers play a vital role in our ability to reach 2,500 students attending 20 high schools with training in soft skills, career readiness, financial literacy and business & entrepreneurship education. Curriculum – YBA’s semester or year-long course covers both the soft skills needed to succeed in a future job or business. Students learn critical elements such as professional communication, resume writing, money management, business plan development, and participate in experiential exercises like a shark tank-style pitch competition. Career Guest Speakers – Each YBA class hosts guest speakers from YBA’s community of volunteers. Business professionals come to their class and share their personal/professional story. Financial Literacy Workshops – YBA also arranges a series of Financial Literacy Workshops in each of our classrooms, in partnership with banks. Lessons include Saving, Credit, How to Buy a Car, and more. Mock Interview Days – YBA’s curriculum includes resume creation lessons. YBA works with teachers and our volunteers to host Mock Interview Days. Students dress for an interview and receive tips and feedback on their resume, as well as practice answering common interview questions. Field Trips – YBA students observe the behind-the-scenes operations of successful companies. Students are exposed to various departments and working environments and learn first-hand about different job roles and responsibilities. Summer Camp – In July 2025, YBA will offer our sixth annual summer camp for advanced YBA students who completed our in-class program. Students learned about financial and career topics like saving, credit, investing and professional networking.<br />

2. HOW DO YOU USE THE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATION TOOLS IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS?

When you're working on a remote team, there's no way to chat in the hallway between meetings or catch up on the latest project during an office carpool. Therefore, virtual communication will be absolutely essential to get your work done...

Many people want to work remotely because of the flexibility it allows. You can work anywhere and at any time of the day...

9. HOW DO YOU PREPARE FOR A MEETING AND PREPARE A MEETING? WHAT DO YOU SEE HAPPENING DURING THE MEETING?

Just as communication is essential when working remotely, so is organization. Because you won't have those opportunities in the elevator or a casual conversation in the lunchroom, you should take advantage of the little time you have in a video or phone conference...

10. HOW DO YOU USE TECHNOLOGY ON A DAILY BASIS, IN YOUR WORK AND FOR YOUR PLEASURE?
