Building a Brighter Future
“I was incredibly nervous and insecure about trying to get back into the workforce. I was overwhelmed trying to figure out my next step, all while worrying about fulfilling my financial obligations as a parent.”
“ATTAIN staff helped me to simplify things and gave me the starting point I really needed, and other steppingstones along the way.”
“The encouragement helped me to realize what I was capable of and seek out a job that I can be successful in, that also leaves room for my career to grow and offers my family the security we needed.”
Certifications and Career Preparation
Jessica completed her Microsoft Word Certification, trained in professional writing and etiquette, and also completed her resume, cover letter, and interview preparation with ATTAIN.
“By the time I had interviews, I was glad I could mention my great test results for Microsoft, as proof of my skills and abilities,” said Jessica.
New Career and Ongoing Support
Jessica has accepted a position as Administrative Assistant at SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry in the Human Resources Department.
“Cody’s enthusiasm was one of the greatest factors that helped me to thrive in the ATTAIN Lab. Whenever I felt defeated with something, she was there to help me with it and offer a solution, give me hope or redirect me,” said Jessica about working with ATTAIN Lab staff.
“Having a place to go to every day with a professional atmosphere and all the tools you need at your disposal, complete with guides, has helped me transition back to work and into a routine of success,” said Jessica.
Congratulations to Jessica on her dedicated and inspiring passion to create a better life for her children and herself!
