Carol commits herself to greatness

Carol, Yodle’s recruiting lead in Scottsdale, commits herself to greatness.

We recently learned of some incredible work that our teammate Carol is doing out West with the Homeward Bound organization.  Homeward Bound’s mission is to assist homeless and domestic violence families with children achieve economic independence, secure long-term, safe, decent, affordable housing and break multi-generational cycles of homelessness and domestic violence. 

We asked Carol about her experience working with Homeward Bound and immediately sensed her passion and excitement around the cause. 
For the past 6 years, Carol has been helping women in the program get back on their feet by providing career advice including resume writing, mock interview and communication skills training.  She informed us that the Yodle Scottsdale office donated a closet full of business attire so the women will really have all the tools they need to land that job. 

The Case Manager who She partnered with at Homeward Bound sent us the following data:
She’s been involved in co-facilitating training for approx 112 women and  of these women who have gone through the workshop 108 found some type of employment! Feedback from the women is that they love the workshop. They said it’s very helpful preparing for a good interview and makes real interviews MUCH easier… 

The Case Manager said this about Carol : “It was cool going back and seeing how successful the workshop has been and the HUGE positive impact you have had on so many of our families lives!!! Thanks for being awesome!!!”

Awesome indeed.
