Vice Apprenticeship Program Seeks Parolees and Individuals on Probation

Shane Smith is deservedly proud of a new initiative announced today.

Vice Media continues to push the envelope, today with the announcement of a most admirable 2017 apprenticeship program.

Typically, a criminal record is a liability for those applying for full-time employment. Not so in the case of the Vice Apprenticeship Program, as Vice Media, together with the Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO), is specifically looking for such individuals.

From the announcement:

The six-month apprentice program will provide formerly incarcerated people who have little to no college or workforce experience with skills across a range of fields, including production, editorial, marketing and other creative jobs, at Vice’s Brooklyn headquarters, paying $15 per hour for 40 hours per week.
