Like so many One Stop Centers, we serve a region that's been hit
hard by layoffs and downsizing. The Get A Job Kit supplements existing county
employment services and helps us respond more rapidly. We keep a supply on
hand because you never know when the next shoe will drop.

Transitioning military personnel and their spouses are finding the competition
much tougher than expected. The Get A Job Kit complements our training program and
provides information on self-marketing --which is a huge advantage. Each kit comes
with free inserts targeted to the needs of our military population.

A surprising number of job seekers think all they have to do is post
their resumes on one of the big web sites and wait for offers. Wrong! Getting a job
is full-time work and requires preparation to get ahead of the competition. The Get A
Job Kit helps people save time and track their progress.

Our career services staff has invested in The Get A Job Kit for ten years,
and we put customized stickers on each kit (at no charge) to advertise our services
and logo. It's a terrific marketing tool for our multi-campus vocational college, and
students love the professional-looking green briefcase design!

Our correctional education budget was cut by more than 30%. The Get A Job Kit
is more affordable than a book, and our students truly appreciate receiving this incentive
to begin anew. Most express gratitude when they receive one.

A local agency gave me The Get A Job Kit, and I liked the way it was packaged.
It had lots of tips about how to look professional, and I even wrote thank you notes!
My persistence paid off with a job offer from a local start-up company.

Going from military service to competing in the private sector was tough!
The Get A Job Kit helped me focus and follow up. A couple of months ago I gave my kit to
a neighbor who lost his job, because I thought the materials could help him too.
