Reginio H., came
to us after being long term unemployed and having no income for a little over
six years. Mr. Hernandez has tried other
employment services in the community, but unfortunately he was still unable to
find employment. Within a nine year time frame his prior work experience was in
a wide range of industries and no position was the same. Upon program entry, he
received intensive one-on-one coaching sessions to determine his transferable
skills in order to make him marketable for employment. His sessions also
included: a mock interview, resume and cover letter revisions, employment
referrals and job search options. Within a few months of his participation and
determination he was able to find part time employment with the possibility of
full time. As a result, he received
support services offered from the Center to assist with transportation for the
first month. Not only has Mr. Hernandez increased his income he will also
receive paid training from his new employer.
