Marcus from Queens, New York

I want to work as a building super in NYC; all I need is tuition for a safety course!

It would be a chance to move into my own apartment with my kids. I've spent 10 years assisting other supers. I'm ready; I just need to be certified.

Overview

I am 35 years old and a single father of two kids. I've been trying to get a job as a certified superintendent in New York City. I have 10 years of experiencing working with other superintendents throughout New York City but in order to be a superintendent of a building, I need to complete a certification course.

My goal is to find employment as a certified superintendent in New York City so that I will be able to provide a better housing situation for me and my two kids. I currently live with my aunt in a small 2 bedroom apartment in Queens NY. Becoming a superintendent will allow me to move out of my aunt's apartment.

I need to complete 31 hours of a Fire and Life Safety Director Course. Once I complete the course and obtain my certificate, I will be able to be hired as certified superintendent for residential or office buildings.

Meeting this need will help me because this certification is critical in obtaining employment as a superintendent. I have years of on-hand experience, but I am missing this certification and without it prospective employers will not grant me an interview.
