Employment Spotlight: Ibrahim

I arrived to the United States of America as a refugee in December of 2008 through CRIS.  After that I was assigned to attend a job training class.  Mr. Chris was my class instructor and Berhanu was my employment counselor, who worked one on one with me to apply for jobs.  I explained to Berhanu what I used to do in Iraq as a tailor.  Then, Berhanu started looking for tailoring positions in Columbus.  I attended my first job interview at a department store and I was tested in the next interview.  Eventually I was accepted for that position as a tailor.  I have been working at this company for almost a year and I am very happy.Name: IbrahimCountry of Origin: IraqJob Title: Tailor
