“I worked for the same company for 17 years and had a hard time making ends meet. My boss denied my request for a raise and wouldn’t even give me health benefits. I tried to find a better job but without access to a computer it was hard. Bonnie at Skills RI helped me fix my resume, gave me access to a computer and helped me complete more difficult applications. Soon after, I ended up getting interviews at not one, but two different companies in the health care field. When CharterCARE offered me a position in the Environmental Services Department at Fatima Hospital, I was so excited to begin a new career. I now have a union job with a great schedule, overtime pay for weekend and holiday work, and health benefits for me and my family. It is a family-friendly place to work and feels great to be appreciated!”
