By exploring the different divisions at The San Jose Group (SJG), you can further pinpoint your own strengths and make new progress in your pursuit of a fulfilling career.
SJG dedicates a great deal of time in training its Junior Executives, preparing them for professional employment. Even the Junior Executives who have not been hired by SJG have reported that the program made it possible for them to obtain positions that would have been otherwise difficult to acquire without their experience at SJG.
"I would like to thank you again for the wonderful opportunity you gave me. It allowed me to have a better understanding of what it takes to work for a successful company and what I need to accomplish in order to effectively be a part of it. I know for a fact that without the experience I received from SJG, I wouldn't be at Careerbuilder.com today."

"After graduating from SIU, I accepted a job with Walgreen's as an assistant manager. A year later, I was still determined to get into advertising industry. I enrolled in the Junior Executive Program and after three months, I was hired by an internationally recognized organization as a marketing and events representative to speardhead their multicultural initiative. The Junior Executive Program made it possible for my dream to come true."
