Rubicon

Don’t go here for the rubicon lawyers if you value your time, dignity and sanity or if you expect to be treated with consideration and respect. Rude. Lazy. Dishonest. Unprofessional. Most concerned with their «Time Equals Money» mentality. Rubicon Legal Services = The. Worst. Ever. I would give a negative (–3) Stars if I could.

Actually, I am writing a review for RUBCION at 1918 Bonita Street, Berkeley because I can’t seem to locate this one, and I have never been to the one in Richmond.
The economy is bad, people are losing their jobs and unemployment rates are rising! Are we heading in a recession? Who knows. But what I do know is I got a referral to Rubicon in Berkeley from EDD (Employment Development Department), as I persisted to find someone/​program to help me. Here at Rubicon they offer a WIA (Workforrce Investment Act) funded program. They have 3 steps to complete to be assigned to a vocational counselor. These 3 steps are offered at certain times on Tues and Thursday (Orientation at 10, Interviewing/​Job search at 11, and Resume step at 1pm). Once you completed these steps– workshops that you get signed off that you attended, you make an appointment with a one of their vocational counselor. I just finished my steps in these past 2 weeks and already made an appointment with a vocational counselor to enroll. Jocelyn who covered for Melba, was very helpful, courteous during the intake. Although it takes about 8 weeks to see if I am eligible, I can keep in contact with her. Once I am determined to be eligible and if I haven’t found a job yet (or I do find a job) I have a year to use their services, which includes training… basically there are certain Adult schools, other programs, and on the job training that will pay. So, I am looking forward to updating my computer skills in Excel and Powerpoint, etc.
Cross your fingers I find a job! Thank you Rubicon for your help!
