So I got permanently laid off, along with 17 other employess back in April. Our company was doing badly so they downsized. I am currently on unemployment and I have only had two interviews since my last day at my previous place of employment. It has been rough. I have applied to SO many places and not many bites have come my way. I have gotten the opportunity to do temp work but I refuse to do so because it isn't a stable guarentee and because I need health insurance asap... I need a direct hire job. Anyways tomorrow I am going to a place called The Hiring Center. I am not exactly sure what it is about (my mom recommended it, some of the staff came to her work and did a seminar). Apparently they help you gain skills, work towards a career, and even help with school. There is an orientation tomorrow and I think it is about 3 hours long. I am not sure what to expect. Hopefully they can help me get a direct hire job... I am slightly clueless and anxious...
This is what it is about... ( I just found this online)

Seems like it could be a good thing (located in a not so good neighborhood).
So what is everyone's take on this?
I'm going no matter what. Wish me luck I suppose.
