Meet Ron. He completed a paid internship with Holt of California. Ron came to Golden Sierra Job Training Agency with a long record of educational achievements, but little work experience. He worked with his counselor to identify occupations and industries where his Bachelor’s degree could be put to good use.

Golden Sierra helped set up his first interview for a paid internship – he nailed it! The internship was temporary, but Ron was thrilled to get real world experience. A few months later, Holt of California had an opening for a permanent position. Ron interviewed along with several others. In the end, the temporary internship helped set Ron apart from his competition. Ron said, “It sure does feel great that I was able to find a full-time job and hold it. Now, the future looks brighter for me.”
