I took the initiative to finally invest in myself and loved every minute. The payroll course was definitely worth it. Gerard was so knowledgeable and instructing so effortlessly. Not only was the information helpful in my current position it will definitely benefit in the near future. I must say I am excited for this new venture. I am so grateful for the BOTJ Community.

I've recently decided to change careers and I wasn't sure how I would go about making myself more marketable to potential employers. I came across Black On The Job on Instagram and started following them because of the great resources they have available. I recently took part in the Payroll Fundamental course so that I can take the first to prepare me to become certified. I definitely recommend reaching out to them for all your career needs!
