Aaron Kaplan is a graduate of the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business and a former teacher at the School of Cinematic Arts. To this day, Kaplan remains an active and proud alum. In March 2017, he teamed up with fellow top USC alumni to launch the “First Jobs” program, which provides recent Cinematic Arts graduates their first paid entry-level jobs in the entertainment industry. First Jobs has launched over 200 jobs for USC alumni, of which Kaplan has personally hired 40.
“Launching FIRST JOBS at USC, the #1 ranked school for the study of cinematic arts, makes it possible to identify and support the most qualified and highly trained future leaders, innovators, creators and storytellers,” Kaplan said. He hopes the initiative will encourage successful alumni to give back by cracking open the door for the next generation. “For recent graduates, getting that first paying job is really, really difficult, and we’ve found a way to make it less difficult. The rest is up to them.” Learn more at https://cinema.usc.edu/alumni/firstjobs.cfm
