Which short course helped you get hired?, barista here

A local college offers a course that costs $600. There are 9 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I would like to use funding if possible. Did a certificate help you get hired?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Ask the course provider how many graduates get jobs and where. Honest providers can tell you.
