I was trained to multitask between communicating with my fellow coworkers and with clients.
To explain my lengthy gap between now and when I was last employed, I was dealing with an illness that meant I had to leave the workforce temporarily.
My time of unemployment was educational in teaching me about being resourceful, responsible and motivated.
I filed, created legal documents, and xeroxed and redacted contracts. In addition to my organizational and overall clerical skills, I made significant use of my communication and people skills.
Pacific Clinics and Pasadena Community College granted me a Mental Health Paraprofessional certification.
