Gallery - Groundhog Job Shadow Day at Home Depot

Groundhog Day was early this year. The annual YBB Groundhog Job Shadow Day at Home Depot was January 31 this year. YBB staff and students went over the Home Depot in Somerville for the day. Every year for the past three years YBB students go to a local Home Depot and learn all about the hiring process at Home Depot and shadow the associates for a few hours to learn about what it is like to work there.

In addition to the Annual Job Shadow Day, Home Depot has also generously supported YBB with materials and volunteers for past community service projects. YBB would like to thank the staff at Home Depot that makes this partnership possible.
