Absolutely loved the service. The personnel are very sincere in facilitating your needs and all of the ladies are obviously very passionate about what they do. Looking for work or other assistance, this is the place to be.

I am not giving them rude not all but some no type of public good reviews. Went in just to use a computer to print 3 papers. Was told we only do appointment only. No type of help. Snobby arrogant black people not even trying to help their own to do better but they are a resource center to help them in need. I am so ashamed of my people on a power ego trip. Thank God for the ladies in the library downstairs. The young mixed girl was a doll. She went over n beyond to help her and her co-workers. Really appreciate them today. a million ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐...... For help compassion and understanding my urgency for help unlike them upstairs. They need to be retrained for courtesy and helping others.

I started attending this career center which i already had my class B permit and i was in a trucking school for 2 months...i was there at this career center for 1 week. This school is great and they will help in a lot of ways which they motivated me for me to get my license fast.. ..i decided to apply for a bus job and got my class B license on the job..this center bought me pants, shirts, and shoes for my new job. I would have stayed if i didn't have my class B permit..i recommend to go attend this program to achieve your career. Thank you Andre for helping me!

Im an ex-felon, for 8 years i have been homeless. I have no idea where to start or how to get a job anymore so much has changed, i have tried to get a job 100s of times, i finally gave up about 3-4 years ago. I am now ready to try again. I am sick of this struggle... Can you guys help? All of my experience is in construction and landscaping, but i have a bad back and cant do that anymore. I can do lots of jobs though and need to make a living. Going on 33 years old. I dont know what to put on my applications or how to create my resume, im really having a difficult time. I do have a car, thats what im living in, it has everything wrong wiith it.... Busted window, alignment issues, tires are wore, the fluids need to be changed, check engine light on.... Need help, ill work anywhere as long as it is light duty and my back is capable..
