FFA SAE's

Post by ThePigGuy34 » Wed Feb 21, 2007 6:53 pm

Does anybody here in FFA do Supervised Agricultural Expierences? I just wondered if anyone knew if they are beneficial to have on a job application.

I've done it since my freshman year. I don't know if they're beneficial on an application, but bringing it up in an interview is. To me, breeding, raising hogs/steers, is half the work. I've learned alot about marketing (which is huge!!), record book keeping, etc. Something worth bringing up in an interview.....

I dont think the employer really cares about your SAE's as much as he does about being in the FFA organization. One of the best organizations in the world.

joepigman have you ever done one? If you are talking about the same thing im thinking of then yes do it. Its a lot of work filling out an sae i did it and it shows how much time and effort you are willing to put in the more things you do in ffa and school the better your resume will look.

yes and the more things you do in ffa make it look better if you just sign up and dont do anything does that look good on a resume... not really but if you go and do all these things then it will.
