Jason Weinstein
Assistant Director, Workforce Partnerships & Employment Services
Sharing career lessons
Jason Weinstein hit his professional stride when he started working as a recruiter in the healthcare industry.
After several promotions and a change of employers, his career path led to his current role at LaGuardia as
Assistant Director of Workforce Partnerships & Employment Services in The Learning & Innovation Center’s
(LIC2) Career Development Center. In this capacity, Jason manages the team that provides job readiness
services and employment assistance to non-credit students. He also works as part of a larger team that
uses labor market information to develop industry/employer partnerships for LIC2 training programs and
the broader college.
“The most rewarding thing about this work is being able to play a part in our students’ professional and
personal growth as well as their career advancement,” says Jason. He also notes that working with
employers helps to bridge the gap between student and industry needs.
Currently working towards a Master Degree in Higher Education Administration, Jason explains that he
uses his own experiences in his career journey to help the students he advises. “I learned how important
networking, professionalism and communication is. I enjoy sharing these lessons with our students,” he
says, adding that his team helps set them on a career pathway that allows them to provide for themselves
and their families.
