TESTIMONIALS
"Best decision I made before moving to DC – instant network of like-minded, passionate young people."
"The applicants we have received from YEP have been as good as or better than applicants from any other source we use."
"The listserv (especially for jobs) is the best resource for junior and mid-level education folks in the city."
"I run a mentoring program that matches high school students one on one with mentors. I sent out the application to the YEP-DC list serve and received a huge response. Sending it out to the YEP group helped me to extend our normal recruiting base and I have been extremely pleased with the [YEP] folks."
"I love getting the job postings – it means I often hear about jobs before they're even posted on other sites like Idealist."
"It's a great organization and it's evident that a lot of hard work is put into facilitating the various events and activities YEP-DC hosts. Keep up the great work!"
"This listserv has helped me greatly! It keeps me informed and has enabled me to meet new people in DMV. When I moved here, two or three people suggested this listserv as something that I simply must be a part of. I'm so glad that I took their advice."
"YEP-DC has helped my transition to my new job and to the educational landscape in DC and around the region and country. I am so glad that I became involved, and hope to continue and help someone just like I was helped. Thanks YEP-DC!"
