Students learn how to conduct an interview, how to write effective resumes and cover letters, fill out applications, get working papers, social security cards, green cards or other key documents and how to handle an interview. In addition, they're taught how to take responsibility in a job, respond to authority, work as part of a team and set goals for the future.
