I worked at NCO for 8 years and was laid off due to the company closing. I wanted to find a career that was in demand and could earn a decent income for my family. Employment Connection helped me to apply for SD to get the training necessary for become a PSW. I wanted to thank MTCU and Lillian Currier at Employment Connection for their support in making a dream come true.

"The service at Job Connect was excellent. The staff were helpful and friendly. My consultant Lil was extremely helpful by assisting me in getting relevant well-paying jobs.
The services I received from Job Connect included resume and cover letter development, prepping for interviews and advice on school programs.
I currently work two jobs, both in my field, as a result of my dealings with Job Connect. I learned how to job search online, how to develop my own resume and I developed confidence in my abilities. I recommend Job Connect and the use of their excellent services to anyone looking for employment."

"I came here looking for direction in the type of work I should be seeking. Job Connect provided me with a new optimism and direction in locating a job I am suitable for.
My age and loss of confidence had become a handicap in my previous job search.[...]
I just wanted to say thanks."

Job Connect Service

My name is Steve Fronzi and I have been in business for 7 years with M&M Meat shops as franchisee for two locations in Sault Ste. Marie.

In that time I have had an extremely low staff turnover. I have had the opportunity to use the services of the Job Connect team on two occasions in that time both of which resulted in the hiring of one of their candidates.

I have had a very beneficial relationship with them. They are always quick to send numerous candidates who have been pre-screened for what I require.

They also help with cost of training your new employee. It saves me time and money searching for candidates with newspaper ads and screening resumes.
I found the forms to fill in to be very easy, quick and straightforward once you hire one of their candidates.

I would definitely use the job connect team every time I need to hire due to the positive experiences I have had with them in the past.

Job Connect Assistance to Essar Algoma Steel Inc.

It is my pleasure to relay the details of the support, advice and invaluable assistance that our Company recently received from the staff at Job Connect.

During April of this year, we approached Team Sault Ste. Marie for their guidance and assistance in our recruitment efforts for 150 new employees.

In summary, I was truly taken aback by the level of support and assistance that we were provided. Of particular note was the dedication and help from the staff at Job Connect. Not only did they offer extremely useful suggestions in the planning and organization stages but also during the two-day job fair. Through the job fair they were present the entire time making extraordinary efforts to ensure that the process ran smoothly. With over 3,000 applicants standing in line for upwards of four hours, the Job Connect staff went out of their way to ensure that all of the applicants were attended to, their concerns and questions promptly addressed and that those people requiring additional assistance were matched with the proper personnel.

Finally, I would be remiss not to comment on the personal demeanor of the Job Connect staff. They made the two day event extremely enjoyable. I look forward to the next opportunity to work with this group again.

Sincerely,

Human Resources Department
