Job Corps in general is what you make of it. If you keep your nose clean, stay in your lane, and focus on your studies and your success, I can promise you that Job Corps is going to be an amazing experience. I was in Gary Job Corps from 2014-2015 doing volunteer work in the Game Room. It was one of the best experiences working I ever had. My worst day working in the Game Room can be compared to some of my best days working in other jobs.
Majority of the staff cares a lot about the students and genuinely do want to see all of the students succeed. Unfortunately, there are students and faculty that make the experience difficult. But at the end of the day, Job Corps is a good opportunity for people who WANT to change their life for the better but lack the means to get to it.
