Youth Soft Skills Empowerment & Hudson Cadillac

Emanuel Cordero, a vocational coordinator from  Youth Soft Skills Empowerment (YSSE) (left) met with Mike Mullaney, Dealer Principal (right) from Hudson Cadillac on South Road in Poughkeepsie to explore a job opportunity at the Hudson Cadillac Dealership. Mr. Cordero was working with an individual whose wish is to be a car salesperson, and through Mr. Cordero’s contact at Hudson Cadillac was able to set up an interview for this individual with the dealership. What transpired at this interview is a prime example of how business, can ThinkDIFFERNTLY!  It started out as an interview for a car salesperson position that led to Mr. Mullaney discovering the applicant’s passion for photography, and specifically photography of cars. Mr. Mullaney was impressed by the applicant’s portfolio of photos that he offered and hired the applicant for a position to take photographs of the cars for the dealership!
