Congratulations JR.

One of our job seekers asked for support in completing a CDL Training. He came with a degree in Japanese Language and Culture and He is also a master carpenter. He determined that truck driving would be a good fit. We signed him for a class and he completed, in fact was used as support in the class for struggling students. He graduated and tried a couple of trucking companies that did not work out. Today, he sent a picture of his new job that he loves. It allows him to drive local and provide support for his family.

He has helped Pivot several times using his many computer skills, including creating a fill in of the tuition packet we use today and have shared with our partners and other fill in forms.

✨ 429 Job Seekers. One Powerful Day. ✨

Yesterday at Pivot Sacramento’s Ready, Set, Hire! Hiring Event, we welcomed 429 community members through our doors — each one showing up ready for opportunity.

Employers conducted on-the-spot interviews, extended second interviews, and began making job offers that will translate into real wages, real stability, and real impact for families in our region.
We are deeply grateful to our employer partners who stayed beyond the scheduled end time to ensure every candidate in line had a chance to be seen. That level of commitment matters.
This is what workforce development looks like when community and industry show up for each other.

If you missed this one, don’t worry — we’ll be back on Wednesday, April 15th in collaboration with the Sacramento LGBTQ Community Center.

Sacramento is ready.
Sacramento is qualified.
Sacramento is hiring.
