Success Stories

CareSource JobConnect has helped many members find jobs and support. Here are some of the success stories.

Training for Better Outcomes

A single mother of two young children was working part-time at a local warehouse and looking for full-time employment. She came to a CareSource Life Services open house for a specific job opening, but heard about the commercial driver’s license (CDL) training available through a local college. Two employers, working in partnership with CareSource Life Services, have committed to interview any candidate who passes the written and driving CDL tests. 

This member decided to continue to work her part-time, temporary position and to apply for the CDL class. Not only was she approved for the class, but she also qualified for funds to take the class. She completed the four weeks of training and passed the written test. She is now working with the instructor to accumulate driving hours and will be taking the driving test in a few months.

Language is not a Barrier

A South African refugee has lived in Dayton with his wife and eight children for less than two years. He had not been able to find full-time work, and felt that his limited English and thick accent were keeping him from getting interviews.

His CareSource Life Coach worked with him to tailor his resume to position specific outcomes and to prepare for interviews. Many employers require testing assessments before granting an interview so the Life Coach advocated for the member to have help with the assessment process. The employer agreed.

The member was offered employment in April and by mid-May the employer made the statement, “Can you find us 50 more guys like him?” Since then, CareSource Life Services has referred six additional members to this employer for similar warehousing positions.

This member participated in monthly coaching and is doing very well on the job. He has also paved the way for the employer to consider others with language barriers with this employer.
