August may be one of the most popular months for a vacation, but the activity levels were high at Hopeworks in August, with 10 more young professionals placed in jobs - just in August.
Young professionals were hired at a wide range of area companies, including Solar Xchange, Itize, Virtua Hospital, Penn Interactive, Snipes USA, American Water, and others! Placements included jobs in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), social media, development, IT support, and web quality assurance. Thus far this fiscal year, Hopeworks young professionals have been placed in jobs with an average starting wage of $42,574 per year!
