Supermarket Careers is a program designed to train and place students interested in jobs in the food marketing industry. Together, Shop-Rite/Wakefern Food Corp, and Monmouth County Vocational School District (MCVSD) have created a partnership to meet the goals of developing a permanent work force. The MCVSD offers students the opportunity to apply for a Job mentorship where they can work in the food industry while still earning high school credits for graduation. This requires a coordinated effort between the school and the communities that it serves. This program provides the student with a basic understanding of retail marketing. It serves to enable students the opportunity for an entry-level position in a variety of retail-based work situations.
