Success Story from Virginia Employment Commission:

DVOP Robert Myers went above and beyond helping Phil Byers, a 73 year old veteran, obtain employment. Over a nine month period Robert assisted Phil in applying for 20 plus jobs and coached him through 10 plus interviews. Robert also provided personal counseling to Phil and his wife, who were both finding it hard to cope with a long period of unemployment. The Byers’ came in or called Robert almost daily throughout the nine months, seeking counseling on a variety of issues. Robert even mentored Mrs. Byers through the process of obtaining employment for a short period to help pay their bills. The process ended with Phil obtaining employment with General Dynamics, a military contractor and much sought after employer. He started as a machinist making $26.00 per hour and has now passed the probationary period. This employment was obtained just as the Byers’ were going to have to file bankruptcy. The Byers’ are now happy and back to their comfortable lifestyle they maintained prior to Phil’s layoff.
