Leads was a huge part in me getting the job I was looking for. Thank you Erika for helping me find the perfect job and even get clothing for the job and for all the support from the leads team. Highly recommend to anyone looking for help with employment
I didn't give them the best hand but they are still playing it to win even though it has been some time trying for work now. The assistance they have provided has been instrumental in my ability to continue to try to move forward. I would recommend their services to anyone that is unemployed or even under employed to help you know what to do to find better jobs.
LEADS Employment Services, was the reason I was able to find a steady and reliable job. They helped me find training and cover the majority of its costs as well. My caseworker Stephanie stayed with me through all the tough times before I landed my current job. It is no exaggeration to say that I owe my current livelihood to both LEADS and Stephanie. It would simply not have been possible without them.
