Success Stories

Transforming Lives & Businesses

We met an amazing high school senior at your job fair who kept in touch after graduation and toured our facility. The day he turned 18, he applied for a position, and we hired him a few weeks later. He’s been an awesome addition to our team!

Discovering the EDC at the Career Fair has truly been a game changer for me! Even as a high schooler, it’s opened doors I never thought possible and has given my career a major boost. I’ve learned so much through this experience, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me next!

We partnered with the EDC as we are always looking for dedicated, focused employees with upbeat personalities wo work well with our members on a daily basis. They were able to send a young man who truly fit that profile, proving to be exceptional in his roll, so much that he was given a promotion to a managerial position in just a few months! Thank you TCCEED!
