Very bad customer service. Receptionist needs to learn Eric’s and deal with customers politely

Alberto and Grace were extremely helpful and professional. They helped provide funding for my first aid class so I could return to work. Thank you Alberto and Grace.

The job search is a journey full of uncertainties, and I received great support from WorkBC to reduce them. My steps up to that point were validated, and I received guidance to correct my gaps. Other than that, the professionals I had contact there are experienced and empathetic. Thanks, WorkBC!

The receptionist Elham didn’t try to register me and refused me to make an appointment remotely. I have talked to the supervisor, Alberto however he was hostile and said he only believes the staff, not the clients.I reported them to the head office and I was told that all the clients can choose how to take the meeting either online or by phone other than in person.I was also told that I should deal with Work BC staff here and they would provide some support but they didn’t.A staff member named Marco tried to shift the blame to me and said ” I’m not sure what you experienced in the past but I can’t change that.”I am not sure what’s wrong with them, but I can tell the management is bad here.They have to stop mistreating a client.Be professional and better human.

Had a very positive experience recently with WorkBC. They were well organized, supportive and very informative on helping me find employment in a difficult situation for me personally. They have very kind, knowledgeable and empathetic staff with useful informational resources and computers even though they were a bit dated. My counselor helped me with career advice including possible change of profession, job applications, customizing cover letters and resume construction. I am very grateful I went and they were a big help in me finding my current employment.I feel local residents can benefit even more greatly from WorkBC if more government support is allocated into services such as this to make it even better than it already is!

I recently applied and went through the process for Back to Work financial assistance after two months off due to relication. The Work BC team was focused, helpful, and swift to assist. I recieved several vouchers that helped set me up for success at my new job. Thank you.

Words cannot describe how grateful I am for the welcome and the help I received in that place.
