“My greatest success was being able to help a Veteran who really felt stuck. His work history was diverse, and he couldn’t find a way to make his resume work. But I saw his qualifications, and worked with RCS Laurie Diaz to connect him with Jaguar Land Rover for a Technician position.”
Starlett Henderson, Employment Specialist, CASY & MSCCN
"One of the successes I will remember the most from this year is helping a military spouse go through sample
interview questions for group environments. With a lot of practice and encouragement, she was able to outshine the others in the
group and landed the job!"
Thai Santiago, Employment Specialist, CASY & MSCCN
"I've worked with applicants on their resumes for a long time, and I've seen just about every applicant type you can find. One attended our resume training and provided a resume that was all over the place. I provided feedback, and you've never seen someone take what you said to heart so completely. He came back with a near-perfect resume, and in a few
weeks had job interviews, and in a month a job. I love seeing our applicants succeed."
Amy Rossi, Director of Communications & Training
"An applicant told me about how she edited her resume. Nothing makes my little nerd heart warm like another person who understands grammar."
Jamie Boyle, Assistant Editor, MSEJ
"We've had so much success with our Career Corps program. Many of our volunteers have gone on to find work in their communities, and a lot of them
have stahed with CASY & MSCCN. Ilove being able to help spouses and Veterans find their place in the military community and professionally."
Bianca Nafpliotis, Career Corps Program Manager
"A frustrated Mortgage Broker came to us wanting to become a nurse after months of not getting any calls from the nursing jobs she applied to. We reviewed the skills she gained through her experience as a medic in the reserves, targeted her resume, and she landed a paid position in a nursing program within a few weeks!"
