Coming to Job Corp was probably the best decision I had ever made, which totally changed my life around. Coming to Job Corp has given me a new direction in my life. Job Corp has had a big influence on my life because ever since I was seven years old, I have always said that I wanted to be a Hairstylist. At first I had thought it was just a phase that I was going through as a child but as I grew older, and wiser, I kept on thinking about it. I could never imagine myself in another position, or another field other than being a Hair Stylists .It has been a lifelong dream of mine to become a Hairstylist. And that is why I am here at Job Corp, to get my high school diploma to begin my journey to becoming a Hairstylist.
When I first started researching about what beauty schools were around in my area and what they offered, I found many different schools for example empire beauty, which seemed like a good start but just didn't seem to satisfy my requirements enough. I wanted something that was a little bit more in detail and hands on because I knew I wanted to learn everything that I could possibly learn about my craft. I looked around and have finally decided on Atlanta area technical college, and also have taken a tour around the school campus and felt that this school meets all of my requirement . And then one day I s. I noted the number down, and called right away, and I was transferred to Jan, who then became my counselor. That was the best choice I had ever made in my entire life. Jan had explained to me, briefly what the course demanded from me, what I could demand from the course, what the teachers were like, what the work load was like, how much it will cost me, and what it can do for me having a MTI degree.
So without wasting any time, I was in her office for a brief introduction. Once I was in the office the whole process was so easy and smooth. I knew right then that I had made the right choice by coming to MTI. The paralegal program was something which fit into my field and satisfied me to where it was on the level I was looking for.
The way I saw the paralegal program was that it was a step in the right direction without being a waste of time. The reason I couldn't get myself to like the Criminal Justice programs were because I knew inside that I would be wasting my time in doing that and it would not get me very far in my pursuit for my career. Getting enrolled for the Program was a good start for me. I was fresh out of High school, without anything except for my High School Diploma. I knew I wanted to go to Law School, but the two big law schools around Sacramento where, Lincoln Law School, and McGeorge Pacific School of Law. Both had different requirements to get into their law program. Lincoln Law School required that you have some sort of degree in the legal field. They were still pretty flexible. But McGeorge required that you have at least a Bachelors degree. And I had neither.
