Success Story: Claudia O. — From General Clerk to Purchasing Agent at Metro

Claudia O. began her journey into the transportation industry with a clear goal: to build a stable, meaningful career. That journey started at the Los Angeles Job Corps Center, where she completed the TCU/IAM Advanced Training Program, which equipped her with the skills, discipline, and professionalism to succeed in a fast-paced work environment.

In May 2006, Claudia was hired by Metro as a General Clerk. From the beginning, she stood out as someone who took pride in her work, paid attention to detail, and consistently delivered results.

Claudia’s drive and dedication paid off. Over the years, she took on greater responsibilities, applied what she learned through TCU/IAM, and steadily climbed the ladder. Today, she serves as a Purchasing Agent, where she plays a vital role in Metro’s daily operations—managing procurement and ensuring essential resources are acquired efficiently and effectively.

Claudia’s success story is a testament to what’s possible when hard work meets opportunity. From her first clerical role to a key position in procurement, she exemplifies the long-term impact of career training, determination, and perseverance.

Congratulations, Claudia! Your accomplishments inspire future TCU graduates to aim high and never stop growing.
