STRONG-WILLED AND DRIVEN JENNI NEEDS A FRESH START ON AN ALL-NEW EPISODE OF ABC FAMILY'S REALITY SERIES "JOB OR NO JOB," AIRING THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 AT 3PM ET/PT

Burbank, CA (September 22, 2015) - Jenni has learned a lot from her difficult life experiences and is now ready to make a fresh start on a new episode of ABC Family's new reality series "Job or No Job," airing Thursday, September 24 at 3:00 PM ET/PT.

"Job or No Job" follows one young adult per episode on his/her journey to land a first job in their chosen career. Each candidate will go on three interviews and viewers will follow along to find out if s/he lands three, two, one - or zero offers. Jane Buckingham (Founder and CEO of Trendera and bestselling author of "The Modern Girls Guide to Life") will be the Career & Lifestyle expert (a.k.a. The "Fairy Jobmother"), dispensing advice on how to learn from their mistakes, where to shop and eat, how to get around town, where to find housing, and the realities of entering the job market.

After losing her Army scholarship due to a medical issue and then losing her home to Hurricane Sandy, 28-year-old Jenni Judge is looking to leave her current job in Point Pleasant, New Jersey to head to San Francisco to interview with three startup companies. Her first interviewers, Tyler Renaghan, Director of Sales, and Bill Roberts, Head of Global Communications at Groupon, are concerned that her qualifications and sales approach don't necessarily mesh with the company's.

On her second interview when she meets with Anthony Marino, Chief Marketing Officer of thredUP, she impresses him with her story but leaves him wondering if her skills are enough.

Finally, when she interviews with Nabeela Virji, Recruiter, and John Garnin, Head of Sales Recruiting at Yelp, she puts her best foot forward to share her story and show her strong personality traits.

Jane coaches Jenni on how to communicate that her life experiences have shaped her into a strong candidate for jobs in these startup companies. But will Jenni take Jane's advice?

"Job or No Job" is produced by Studio Lambert/All3Media America. Stephen Lambert, Eli Holzman, Greg Goldman and Sara Quick serve as executive producers.
