Hire Heroes USA veteran Gary Hoff has been hired by the state of New Jersey Division of Children and Families as a Family Support Specialist Trainee. Gary registered with Hire Heroes in April of 2012 and receive assistance with his cover letter and resume, interview skills, and job searching from the Hire Heroes staff.

 

Without Joelle DiMicele I would not be working for the State of New Jersey today. If it was not for her determination and guidance I would not have been prepared for job interviews, nor would I have had a solid resume that highlighted why I was the right candidate for the job. Through her countless hours working with me and motivating me Joelle helped me find that perfect job that matched my personality and life goals. Joelle was always enthusiastic, despite any difficulties, and also served as a mentor as I went through the difficult claims process with the VA. Joelle’s love of helping others, as well as her ability to know where to find opportunities made a huge difference in my life. Because of Joelle’s relentless love to help others, it has helped me become a successful transitioning Disabled Veteran, and I will never forget what she has done for me.
