Nevada Jobconnect

They have a system that doesn’t work. I showed up there and they have no wi fi. They are totally behind and antiquated. I get in line to use the computer but the Russian lady with an ill temper is not around. I go back to the front desk to find out where she is. In the meantime she goes back to her desk and puts somebody else in line ahead of me even though I had been waiting patiently much longer. I told her that I was next and instead of showing any common courtesy or respect she tells me I have to get in line! I told her I am in line. It is her that was out if line. I say all I want is for her to do what is fair. Then she just brushes me off and doesn’t care at all about doing what is right. Job connect has a system that is broke. When you come here don’t have high expectations about this place. They simply don’t care. It doesn’t inspire much confidence in me if they can’t even show me any respect when I first get there looking for work. They treat me like dogs. But I am a human being. Even the black lady working the front desk was very rude and unkind. Very uncaring and unapologetic. She was extremely condescending. Exact opposite if how she should behave for her particular job title. These people are terrible. Don’t waste your time with this place.

Great place to start…

This place has a bunch of already filled jobs they make you wait in line for 2 – 3 hours and give you up to 4 referrals for jobs that pay diddly or have all been filled. They do however let you use the computers, phones, fax and copier.

This place gives you the tools to get a job if you’re confused and/​or clueless about the process. They’re useful because:
1. They will give you a professional recommendation if you set up an appointment and come on time and are dressed appropriately for the type of job you’re applying for. This is especially nice for government jobs with lots of red tape.
2. They will hook you up with info about the programs available to help people gain job skills to get a basic job.
3. Get there early — if you’re not there by 10 the place fills up and it starts to make the DMV look like a model of efficiency
I actually did not get my new job here, but I did have to pick up some paperwork here for my sheriff’s card and I found out a lot about some of the resources that would have been of great help to me during my recent period of unemployment. For the most part the people who work here are thoughtful and on point, considering all they have to put up with.
Oh and just like the DMV, there are some people here who are absolutely horrible, on both sides of the counter, so just try to ignore those asshats.
