INDIANAPOLIS — Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett and EmployIndy kicked off their 2023 Project Indy summer jobs program on March 1.
Project Indy is a network that allows people ages 16-24 to connect with employers that will provide job opportunities and skill development.
The program offers a variety of jobs ranging from seasonal summer opportunities to full time jobs from over 100 companies.
Employers can sign-up to post jobs onto the platform. Job seekers can sign-up, create a profile and browse nearby jobs. Beyond hiring, jobs can also provide job shadowing opportunities, share industry insight with young adults and conduct mock interviews.
