Benton Harbor High School JMG Youth Gain Real-World Experience at Whirlpool! On March 4, our Jobs for Michigan's Graduates (JMG) students from Benton Harbor High School had an incredible opportunity to step into the professional world during an Employer Experience event at Whirlpool Corporation! They rotated through four key departments, tackling real-world job tasks alongside expert mentors. ?? Communications – Navigated a simulated crisis that required crisis communications tactics, collaborating with HR, facilities, and security to draft an official statement. ?? Cooking Engineering – Became food scientists, redesigning a mug cake recipe to perfect taste and texture before testing it in a microwave. ?? Innovation & Design – Explored aesthetics and functionality by sketching unique flashlight designs for situations where a phone light wouldn’t be available. ?? Sales & Negotiation – Took part in a high-stakes meeting, learned key principles in negotiation and the art of compromise. Huge thanks to Whirlpool Corp. for this hands-on experience, giving our youth a glimpse into careers in engineering, design, sales, and communications! ?? #Mentorship #MentoringMatters #CareerExploration #YouthEmpowerment
