Karen Isaacs is working on various temp assignments through Kelly/Quest. She’s currently working at the reception at ACI, the company where she completed her Office Basics job shadow. She says, “I came to FCD to get some direction with my life. Doing this course uplifted my spirits and taught me to trust God to lead me. It also gave me the confidence to find a job. Gaining the computer skills was really beneficial. I was clueless about operating computers and equipment before. If it wasn’t for the job shadow that I did at ACI, I would not have the job that I have today.”
