Ishmam’s Story: Career Guidance and Support Through the Pandemic

 

“It's amazing what landing a job can do for your mental health. Suddenly I feel my other goals and dreams springing back into life. I can only wish this feeling on the countless others who are going through the same struggle I did. “

After he was laid off, Ishmam was optimistic he’d find his next job in no time. Unfortunately, just as hewas beginning his search, COVID hit.

It felt like everything was thrown to the wind. I began to lose hope of finding a job as companies started to withdraw openings and adjust to the new reality. It was then that Hired swooped in and helped me stay focused.”

Ishmam met virtually with his employment counselor, who coached him to keep his job search going. She encouraged himto continue reaching out and making connections despite the pandemic. Whether providing financial or emotional support, the Dislocated Worker Team at Hired checked in with Ishmam often.

Ishmam took online courses and renewed his engineering certification. By the end of June, he accepted an offer as a Manufacturing Engineer II.

Hired helped strengthen areas that I was weak in and helped me stay focused. I am now able to be with a company that I will be able to apply my skills, knowledge, and abilities at a entry level position.
