Good afternoon,
I have a wide base of experience, leaving me interested in several different types of positions -
Office Manager, Project Assistant, Software Testing, Training, IT Support, or Safety Manager.
I am a detail oriented, efficient professional with over 15 years of experience providing customer
support with short turn-around times. The most rewarding position of my career was as Office
Manager at an engineering firm. I was hired for the position of ‘Project Assistant’; however, as
my strengths were discovered, I was given the ‘Assistant to the VP’ position, followed by the
position of ‘Office Manager’ and then ‘First-Line Computer support Technician’. These positions
were held concurrently making this the most all-encompassing position I have held. My Office
Manager position included accounts payable, accounts receivable, office budget balancing, and
payroll for the office (which was then forwarded to main office for completion and printing). The
variety of duties and responsibilities of the positions made this the most exciting job I have held
as of yet and perfected my multi-tasking skills.
During my career, I have been responsible for many other duties in addition to Office
Management. This has allowed me to gain experience in many varied skills. A large part of my
experience lies in the IT field. Some of the skills acquired while in IT include: familiarity with
help desk software, remote technical support, software/ hardware testing and troubleshooting,
and developing training documentation. I have over 10 years experience supporting PCs with
Microsoft Windows and Windows Server software. Furthermore, I am a quick study and will
pick up additional required knowledge in a short amount of time.
As you can see from my repeated periods of employment with Kelly Services (an employment
agency), I am a valued asset worth rehiring.
You may reach me at anytime on my cell phone (979-417-6799) or by email
(faithshaffer@rocketmail.com). I am currently unemployed, and available to start immediately. I
anxiously look forward to hearing from you and having the opportunity to discuss what we have
to offer one another.
Sincerely,
Faith Shaffer
