Recently, our South Carolina team attended the Clean Tech Accelerator Skills Showcase at the Goodwill Clean Tech Accelerator Lab (GCTA). Goodwill’s Community and Workforce Development Center introduced them to the newest trainees so they could see firsthand the skills attendees built through the program. They left impressed and excited about the talent entering the local maintenance workforce.
Workforce-Ready Maintenance Candidates
During the showcase, our staffing recruiters interviewed several maintenance candidates who have completed all required coursework. Each candidate showed the drive and know-how employers look for in reliable maintenance professionals.
Our team also witnessed the hands-on training in action. These trainees have built practical, job-ready skills in:
- Carpentry, including measuring, cutting, and basic repair work
- General maintenance, covering the everyday tasks that keep facilities running smoothly
Certified and Ready to Contribute
Every candidate they met has earned their Universal EPA certification. This credential covers the safe handling of refrigerants across all types of HVAC and refrigeration equipment. For employers, it means candidates arrive with verified skills and fewer training gaps on day one.
Candidates Already on Their Way to New Roles
Several trainees are going through our onboarding process, and we are actively working to place them in maintenance positions; we expect to see them on the job soon.
For these candidates, it’s the next step after months of hard work. For property management companies, it’s direct access to trained, certified talent in a field where skilled workers are in high demand.
A Growing Partnership With Goodwill
Blair Barton, our South Carolina Staffing Manager, says, “Our relationship with Goodwill’s Community and Workforce Development Center reflects a shared goal: helping people build careers that last. Goodwill provides the training. We connect graduates with employers who need their skills.”
Events like this let our recruiters meet candidates face to face, understand their strengths, and match them with roles where they can thrive.
Looking Ahead
Legacy Apartment Staffing is proud to support Goodwill’s trainees and grateful for the chance to meet such promising candidates. As this partnership grows, we look forward to connecting even more skilled individuals with great employment opportunities across South Carolina.
