EVERY APPLICANT IS AWARDED A CERTIFICATE. Allow 24-48 hours to reply. You'll receive via your provided email a brief questionnaire to complete (basic stuff like location, type of job interests, etc.) which helps to determine what credits your prospective employer may receive when hiring you. You'll already have an advantage over other job seekers just by presenting the GET JOB WOTC CERT, however being able to bring additional tax credits to an employer really gets their attention. (NOTE: This does not "guarantee" job placement but puts you in the best possible position along with your other skills and talents).
