Overview
The Summer Bridge Program is a two-day pre-apprenticeship experience June 12-13, 2023 in which you will learn from industry professionals what it takes to succeed as an apprentice in the BMCC/JP Morgan Chase Apprenticeship program.
In addition, you will be automatically considered for the prestigious, BMCC/JP Morgan Chase one-year, paid apprenticeship program.
Recommended Pre-Work
Do you want to get more out of the Summer Bridge Program and demonstrate your interest in the apprenticeship? After you are accepted to the Summer Bridge Program, but before it begins, we recommend you take at least two free LinkedIn Learning courses from each of the four categories below:
- Data Analysis & Excel (11 courses to choose from)
- Presentation Skills & PowerPoint (11 courses to choose from)
- Interview Skills (3 to choose from)
- Professional Success (13 to choose from)
LinkedIn Learning is free for BMCC students (how to log in to LinkedIn Learning.) To get the most out of these courses, be sure to take detailed, handwritten notes. As you complete each course, be sure to 1) post your learning certificate on your LinkedIn profile and 2) share your reflections here.
You should also reach out to Driada Rivas at the BMCC Center for Career Development for help with your resume, LinkedIn profile, interviewing skills, and more.
On-Site Seminars
We are planning two days of seminars on-site at JP Morgan Chase to prepare you for success as an apprentice. Topics will include:
- Elevator speech exercise
- Senior leader welcome
- Career exploration and networking
- Self-advocacy
- Business etiquette
- Interviewing best practices
- Business writing and presentations
The summer bridge will include many opportunities for candidates and bankers to get to know each other. Shortly after the seminars, participants will interview with JPMC for the apprenticeship position.
$300 Award
Candidates who complete the two-day program will receive a $300 award from the NY Jobs CEO Council.
