Alex joined our Community Employment Services team in April 2026, and we're thrilled to share that he's landed a foundational role at AMC Theatres .

Through targeted coaching, Alex learned to connect real workplace scenarios at the theater to common interview questions, turning everyday experience into interview confidence.

This is what meaningful career development looks like. It's not just about landing a job. It's about building the skills to secure it, keep it, and truly thrive in it.

Way to go Alex. We can't wait to see everything you accomplish next!
