​SOUTH BAY WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD​

"Just give it a shot and reach out to the One-Stop to see how they can best help you! They have connections to local businesses and can provide opportunities that you wouldn't be able to find on your own. It's also free, so there's nothing stopping you!"

“The Carson one stop career center helped me gain worked experience and taught me to be on time. The staff welcomed me and explained everything I needed to know to get started which made me feel part of the community.”

“I am grateful for the opportunities granted by the South Bay One Stops and the exposure I received that allowed me to embark along a pathway to achieving my future employment and career goals.”

“Definitely come to YouthBuild and be open to what they offer. The program will only work if they are willing to accept and take advantage of the services the program offers to be successful.”

"I would like to tell others who struggle to find employment to never give up and always try to find as many resources as possible, because you never know who can end up helping you out when needed. Also, don’t get discouraged if things don’t work out right away, simply try again or move on to something better.”

She reflects on the growth of her leadership, time management, and communication skills during her time in the program. She is currently enrolled at El Camino College and plans to transfer to UCLA after two years.

“I am grateful for the opportunities granted by these programs and the exposure to the retail and customer services industry.”

“I am truly thankful for the One Stop and all the help they have given me. I hope to find future employment through the One-Stop, once I finish college in the youth department because I want to help youth in need.”
