I graduated May 2017 and within a few weeks was hired where I did my internship. In March 2018 I was downsized and no longer had a job. I went there next day to see Danielle in career services. She said she would look at my resume and email me. I haven't heard a single thing from her and it's now almost the beginning of September. I did 3 programs at Mildred Elley; accounting, medical administrative assistant, and clinical medical assistant. At the moment I'm working a temp job as an assembler for minimum wage. What happened to helping with lifetime career placement? Danielle hasn't helped me at all, very disappointing.

Mildred Elley I must say is one of the best place I have experience to go to collage. The staff is very polite, friendly, they care about your needs and concerns. I am a graduate from the massage therapy program and I am now back again for my business program. I’m accomplishing one goal at a time . I hope to succeed at this as well as I did in the massage therapy program.
