When I started the program at Unitek, I didn't know what to expect. We had gotten a new curriculum, and we were the first class to start it. I do have to say though it has all paid off. The Career Services team was really helpful with our resumes and mock interviews. Thanks to them, I was able to get a lot of job offers.
