IRMA
Divorced and lonely, Irma moved to Fort Worth from Louisiana to be close to her son. Retired from her previous job after 28 years, she had gone back to school and received her Masters degree. She thought she would easily find a job in her new hometown, but she ended up on an assembly line at a factory.
Then Irma saw an ad for Jobs NOW at The Women’s Center. “It was an eye-opener for me. The classes really shed a light on how to apply and get a job.”
A local college was so impressed with Irma, that they hired her for a new position in student career services, where she has been for several years.
“Knowledge is power. I recommend to my students to attend The Women’s Center’s Jobs NOW program.” |
