Profile For Craig P.

I'm kind of finding it funny how most of the comments on this thread aren't actually about my questions. Anyways, I talked to the student services and she is having me to have 3 people in town to say I've been unemployed for those periods of time and have the notarized. I hope that is enough because I want to get through school, get out of this house, and make some money!

I am starting school Monday and I was curious if there were rumors or horror stories of this school. It seems like a nice school and the people I've talked to about being enrolled have been super nice but I'm curious if maybe it is too good. I would also like to hear from recruiters if they have worked with anyone from this school.

It is roughly $275 out of pocket and the companies that hire will gradually pay the rest of the tuition. It is a 3 week course with 150 hours total and is state certified. They say I will know if I am pre-hired by the end of the first week. I am just curious if any of this sounds "too good" to anyone else or is the norm in the industry.

I also had a question about my actual chances of being employed, I am 2 years out of college with most of those 2 years (October 2011-December 2012 and Feburary 2013 until now) looking for career opportunities but nothing has appeared pertaining to my interests and qualifications. Do you think those 2 years will inhibit my chances of getting hired on by companies or do you think I could slide by with my otherwise perfect application?

Thanks to anyone and everyone that responds, it means a lot!
