On Friday, juniors had the chance to hear local professionals talk about their chosen career and what today’s job market is like.

This year’s keynote speaker was Scott Thuman, the Senior Political Reporter and anchor covering the White House and Capitol Hill for ABC 7 News and News Channel 8.

Thuman talked about the day to day schedule of a TV news reporter and the highs and lows of his job.
