Honestly I never thought I would write…
Honestly I never thought I would write a review like this, but I have to because this changed my life. When I came to Canada I did what everyone does. You take whatever job you can get and you just try to survive. I started in fast food, then moved into an HCA role in long term care. I was proud of that work, but one day I got attacked on the job. Any nurse or frontline worker will tell you the same kind of story, it is more common than people think. After that I would feel anxious every single shift before even walking in. AJ was the one who pushed me. He kept telling me I could do more than just survive, that I could actually get an office job with better pay. I did not believe him at first. It felt too hard, too far from where I was. But he sat with me, fixed my resume properly, and practiced interviews with me until I felt ready. And it worked. I got an office job. Better pay, but the biggest thing for me is safety. I do not feel that anxiety anymore when I leave for work in the morning. That feeling is worth everything.
If you are stuck in survival mode and think an office job is not possible for someone like you, please just try this. A little bit of the right guidance made a huge difference for me, and I really hope more people give it a chance and feel it for themselves.
