I attended Gary Job Corps back in 2016 I completed the Pharmacy Technician program in about 5 months. Before I attended Job Corps I was working full-time making 8.50 hour barely brigining in 600 every two weeks. They paid for my driver s license my, my test certification, and state registration. Within two weeks of graduating I landed my 1st Pharmacy Tech job making 12.50/hr. A month later I was hired at OptumRx in sugarland with a pay of 14.84/hr plus hella OT and benefits. I worked for Optum a little over a year my ending salary was $15.50/hr . Now I just got got hired as a Senior Pharmacy Technician for Optum specialty pharmacy with a pay of 17.25/hr. I couldn t have made a better decision in my life I m able to comfortably provide for me and my child ! Gary Job Corps isn t designed for your luxury it s meant to help you obtain a trade to obtain a career. Once I isolated myself from all negativity it was a breeze. And if I could go back I definitely would have been more focused on my studies and maybe even picked up an additional trade.
