[Ohio-talk] Fwd: Opportunities for Ohio wins with disabilities

[Suzanne turner via Ohio-talk]

Thank you for that encouragement.
The job coach does job placement, job development and job planning! All of the categories are rolled into one, which is job coach. I have applied for seven positions and interviewed for one right now. So, the job coach won't have to do much with me. I am blessed and fortunate because I have been told my resume is a pretty good one! However, we all can use improvement and I will take good criticism if given to me!
