Katherine worked in the home health field for over 16 years. She thought that, with her experience, she would be able to find a new job in no time. A year later, though, she was still unemployed. After enrolling in the GOALS program in March, Katherine and her GOALS Career Navigator got to work right away, completing assessments, building her resume, and freshening up her interview skills. Katherine also graduated from the first ever Partners 4 Success class, funded through GOALS, in the Southwest region. With a new outlook on life, she set out determined to become employed and started submitting applications. Shortly after graduating from the class, and with a lot of hard work on her part, she was offered a job as an Event Specialist. She is now earning a livable wage and has an opportunity to advance in the company. Katherine is very thankful for the GOALS program and has even offered to come back and speak to future Partners 4 Success students. Her employer is pleased with her work and is considering making her a lead person. Her retention services with the GOALS Employer Liaison began in October, and she states that her job is going wonderfully. Great job, Katherine!
