DEBORAH'S STORY
At a time when getting
hired is challenging,
many Warren County residents
are locating employment
through Family
Services’ Success Toward
Employment Program
(STEP). “Many individuals
are overwhelmed and frustrated with the lack of employment
opportunities,” says Vickie Staley, WCCS Employment Advocate.
“We offer quality, individualized employment coaching with an
emphasis on achieving and maintaining employment.” Through
Vickie’s expertise, individuals receive coaching on resume writing,
networking, improving interview skills, electronic job searching, and
receiving referrals to local businesses who are hiring.
Deborah had been job hunting for months to no avail. As the head of
the household with two young children, she couldn’t seem to catch a
break since the store she managed had closed. When her car was
repossessed, she found herself without transportation.
Deborah felt a ray of hope when she was referred to Vickie, the
STEP Employment Advocate. Vickie assisted Deborah in creating a
new resume and taught her the importance of electronic networking.
She became a member of LinkedIn and located her previous supervisor
who contacted her for an interview with his current company.
A car was donated unexpectedly to WCCS and Deborah was qualified.
She made it to the interview and was hired as a
store manager.
