Abstract
The Large Hadron Collider at CERN currently provides p$+$p collisions at center of mass energies of $\sqrt{s} = 7$~TeV, which allow to study high $\pT$ particle production and jet properties in a new energy regime. For a clear interpretation and the quantification of the medium influence in heavy-ion collisions on high $\pT$ observables a detailed understanding of these elementary reactions is essential. We present first results on the observation of jet-like properties with the ALICE experiment and discuss the performance of jet reconstruction in the first year of data taking.
