I really enjoyed the workshop on Job Interviews by Santosh Bhatti. She gave us an assignment to develop and practice answers to common interview questions which helped me land a second interview with a prospective employer. My Employment Consultant, Farbod Gharbi has been quite supportive in helping me with my professional development. I'm grateful to WorkBC for walking this journey with me

I'd like thank you all of the great team of Work BC, specially Santosh and Nahed. Those who helped me to start my career in Canada as a new comer. Throughout my job search, I learned that the process should not be taken personally, but rather requires patience and self-confidence in one's own abilities. With perseverance and determination, success is simply a matter of time.

I am so happy that I reached out to Work BC to get my Automotive training! All the team are amazing, Ana, Catherine and Judy. Since the beginning they did their best to help me, Catherine and Judy are very knowledgeable and professional. Catherine worked around the clock to get my application processed in time, and Judy from the financial department was amazingly supportive and got my application approved in time to start my training.
I cannot express in words how thankful I am! I, definitely, recommend Work BC -Burnaby Metrotown Services!

Not interested in your success

Tried working with the case manager Subrath for over a year.

Offer certain "supports" but good luck having them be accountable for anything they involve you in. Informed them I was an individual with disabilities, they then told me that they were going to enroll me for certain psych assessments. When those fell through they never followed up.

Offer you a program but when you need help financing to graduation that works around the program, the phonecall you to tell you "tough luck".

Subrath Shrestha even gave me a trash resumé to do my job search, so you can't even really trust them for that.

A big thank you to Work BC Metrotown and particularly Giggs Subsermsri for all the assistance and empowerment I got. You were super helpful in landing me into the career that I am in now. Giggs assisted me from scratch as a new immigrant, directed me towards valuable resources and opportunities when I was at my most vulnerable place here in B. C. I feel empowered as all that effort led to my new career and current level of comfort.

Giggs gave me relevant and consistent guidance where I knew nothing about this place, and i am forever grateful. Giggs communicates so well, very professional and very respectful. Very patient too. He listened with compassion, empathy and without judgement throughout my journey. Thank you Giggs, thank you Work BC!

A big thanks for all the staff that helped me a few years ago. Right from the first person I met. 'Jazz' in the reception area, she was amazing.helping me with the computer and my WORKBC account and other things. Wendy helped me with my resume. Joe helping me with my approach/direction and my specialized issues. Christopher and Subrath being my Specialized Employment Consultants. These guys became my "super-stars" for over a year and more. I really liked the school/Learning/topics meetings. I can't remember her name, but the Instructor was very good. They ALL helped me to get back to work with my first job since my brain injury! THANK YOU EVERYONE! I will remember you forever and will always refer to anyone needs help with their next job and advise. They are very professional and they are there to help us!
