| Success Story - Janice Hamilton |
|
|
 |
Prior to seeking services from the Brooklyn Workforce 1 Career Center, Janice
Hamilton last worked for ABC, Inc. as Computer Network Administrator
when she was laid off in June 2007.
In Aug 2007, Ms. Hamilton visited the Workforce 1 Career Center in order to seek
advice on getting a new job. Although Ms. Hamilton was eager to work at that time,
she did not have the necessary job skills to advance in her career. She was specifically
interested in a Network Administrator position, but it required more up-to-date
IT expertise than she possessed at the time.
After an employment and training assessment, Ms. Hamilton and her career advisor
determined that an “MCSE 2003” Networking course would allow her to upgrade her
skills and make her more competitive to prospective employers.

and credential, she landed a job with the NYU Medical Center, making 5% more than
in her last job.
