Meet Deron Pullins
Deron PullinsDeron Pullins has been a loyal JFY volunteer for over two years.  Deron is a Senior Project Manager at Motorola and finds the time to fit JFY into his busy schedule while traveling between their Schaumburg and Chicago locations.
 
Deron participates in our Mock Interviews, but his favorite classes to teach are Networking and Strengths + Weaknesses.  Deron is always looking for new ways to tailor his content to the volunteer task at hand in order to improve his interactions and results with our clients.  His very first class at JFY was Networking, which served as a reminder to him that "we always learn more by teaching."
 
When asked what he finds most rewarding about his time at JFY, Deron says that being able to give back and share his experiences and knowledge make it all worthwhile to him, and we are so glad to hear that.  We are lucky to have you, Deron.  Thanks for your commitment to Jobs For Youth and our clients.

Since 1979, Jobs For Youth has helped young men and women from low-income families become a part of the economic mainstream; and, in the process, provided the business community with motivated job-ready workers.  Established in 1979, Jobs For Youth has made over 28,000 job placements for Chicago's 17-24 year olds.
