Contra Costa County - California reviews

Once you're past probation, you have stability and good benefits. There is a rigorous four-month classroom training on eligibility for usually food stamps and Medicaid eligibility, with five exams you must pass with 80% or better, and you must have stellar attendance unless you are really sick or have Covid. But if you plan to take vacation within the first six months of employment, don't. You have four months of classroom training and then 2-3 months of on-the-job training, which can be in Antioch or Hercules until you are given your permanent location and assignment, where they try to give you a place near your residence. Yes, you start out initially on the lower end, salary-wise wise at around $53,000 a year, but after your training you get a raise and then it goes every six months. You qualify after a year to bid up for a promotion and you can level up faster if you have a bachelor's degree. I really love helping the community and I'm in my Master's program to be a social worker so I like what I do. But it's not for everyone. You have to do rotation in a call center at least twice a week but after your nine-month probation is up, you can work two days a week from home. So, if you want to help the community, especially vulnerable low-income and homeless populations, this is a great choice. You are serving your community.

Can't think of even one
