Skills For Chicagoland’s Future

I wouldn’t give this not one star, but it is required to. I don’t have a bachelors degree, I am currently in college and I have office work experience, along with other experience… I applied once thinking I would be able to receive some help for a bank teller position and it was a waste of time! I could have just applied online in my on time. I thought job agencies are suppose to help those who want to work. There was truly no help what so ever, or not even a suggestion on where I can be a good fit, given that I submitted my resume. Not even an email or reply back saying I wasn’t fit for the position. Just never heard back.

Kudos for an incredible employment agency. Our daughter graduated from college in 2014 and has been struggling to find a good job. I read about SCF online and forwarded the information to her. After giving them her resume SCF promptly contacted her, interviewed her by phone and gave her advice on how to interview with prospective employers. She now has a job with great future advancement. She has recommended SCF to a few of her friends and they too are now gainfully employed. What a great service to provide for the citizens of the great city of Chicago. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and continue to be a bright guiding light to future employees and employers alike.

WTF?
How are there only 2 reviews? This is place deserves more than that. Anyway, I wanted to share my experiences with SCF.
I applied for a job through the SCF website and promptly heard back. I worked with Jake who got me going in my job search. Jake was very courteous and knowledgeable about the job market, specifically job-​seekers in my position. In the meeting he setup, we discussed the role I applied for (on the SCF site) and the steps to be taken in order to make my candidacy as strong as possible. He did a great job reviewing my resume and offering feedback as well as giving me tips on how to better prepare for interviews. Overall I felt that he was really caring about my situation and tried to put me in the best shape to move forward with the opportunities presented. I recommend going through Jake and SCF as they seem well connected in the job market, are professional and courteous, and provide useful and honest feedback.

I quite my job on a Wednesday. Went to a career fair on Thursday and meet with Skills For Chicagoland’s Future and with in 2 weeks was hired at CDW. I am extremely happy with my new career and look forward to the success it will bring me. SCF knows what they are doing and will place you in a place that is right for you.
