Food Manufacturing Quality Control Graduate December 2024
Why did you decide to come to CHICAT?
I loved my job and had to make a decision to leave because there were changes in the company. I began to feel blocked without vision or direction and although the company allowed me to work remotely I felt suffocated. I was worn out. Also, I had to put my health as a priority because my health was already affected negatively because of the stress. I was starting to feel lost in what I wanted to do but at the same time I thought that going back to school would be a big challenge for me. When I saw the advertisement on Facebook announcing QUALITY FOOD TECHNICIAN, I saw this opportunity to reinforce what I knew and to increase my skills and of course take advantage of certifications making this more attractive when provided for free.
