classroom job applications

I keep running across articles talking about teaching kids life skills in school. What if students had to apply for jobs in the classroom? Write a cover letter, fill out an application, answer basic interview questions and then get hired or hear feedback for why they didn't get hired. Also, science offers a unique place where you can write an abstract, which is basically telling people why they should read your article.... easily equatable to a cover letter where you spell out why you should be hired. Additionally, it adds to classroom culture and student ownership of their learning
