Montgomery County ESC is always looking for good people, and you can help. Research has shown, and our own experience supports, that new hires that come into an organization through employee referrals are great staff members, who typically stay with the organization longer. If you know someone who would be a good addition to work at MCESC, you will be awarded a referral bonus of $500.00 if you refer a candidate and he/she is hired and completed the required amount of days of employment.
