GroupMe, Gilt Group, Jon Bon Jovi Launch SummerQAmp To Create More Quality Assurance Jobs

Unemployment continues to be an issue here in the States, but the tech industry could prove a very valuable resource when it comes to building out the American work force. That said, I sat down with GroupMe co-founder Steve Martocci who may have a plan to help solve the problem.

In conjunction with the CTO of the White House Aneesh Chopra, musician Jon Bon Jovi, and Gilt Groupe?s Vice President of Quality Engineering Kevin Haggard, GroupMe and Steve Martocci will participate in a new initiative aimed at training young people in the ways of Quality Assurance tech positions. Jibe, OnSwipe and Newton are all participating, as well. The program was developed as a commitment to the White House's Summer Jobs + initiative, which calls businesses to work with the government to offer a path toward employment for low-income youth.
