Greetings all,

I am in the early stages of planning relocation from a ski resort in California where I work as the Director of IT for a k-12 public school district (I also teach one advanced technology class) to NW Arkansas, home of Wal-Mart Stores. I have worked for Wal-Mart stores at various levels and positions in IT and have inside knowledge of their systems and business practices across the entire corporation, from transportation operations to the buyers' negotiating tactics. I have experience interacting with V and C-level executives being the one called in to get overdue or �impossible� projects done on-time and under budget (100% success rate). I hold three undergrad degrees in business, IT and design and have only one more class to complete my MBA. With a successful track record in sales, I also have marketing and customer intelligence experience. I am a licensed real estate salesperson in California and am pursuing the same in Arkansas as well.

I am highly motivated, consistently exceed my employers' expectations, am a trustworthy man of my word and am very productive: usually I am able to do in one week what it takes two people to do in two. I am looking for new employment opportunities where I can have either a stake in the company or a variable income so I may be rewarded based on my results. Willing and able to learn to do almost anything well, I am open to any kind of opportunity. I am young and have a young family, but am not opposed to traveling. If you do business with Wal-Mart, I may be able to serve as a local representative/liaison and provide a local office/presence on your behalf. I am very flexible on schedule and am relatively inexpensive for the value that you will receive. Please contact me if I may be of service.

Bryan

Please PM me for more information

At long last my Finnish girlfriend and I will settle down in Helsinki. This means time has come for me to find a job there. Currently I am working for a major global company (name known to everyone here) as a training coordinator. My university degree is within HR, majoring in work psychology. Apart from this I have had minor studies in corporate communication, management, economy and labour law. To my other strengths belong my extensive intercultural experience and IT skills. I'm fluent in Swedish, English and German, and will get by with Spanish. My Finnish is still improving to a fluent level, a bit left though. I see my future role within for example HR, training, communication, coordination, project management or sales. Basically open for anything in an office.

I'm happy to send my CV to anyone interested!

Looks like it's my turn to post a job requirement

I need someone who has MFG/PRO eb2 experience, and is located in the Detroit area to help in the support desk.

This person will take call from multiple manufacturing plants, help with MRP, customer schedules, supplier schedules, and needs to have a good understanding of repetitive manufacturing

Please, PM me if you are interested.

This will be a short term position, but it has the potential to grow, as this person will have chance to work in the upcoming SAP implementation.

This may be a longshot, but, I am wondering if there are any Orbitz.com or Travelport employees out there in FT land.

I ask because I am in the process of relocating to Chicago and would love to work at Orbitz.com. I feel you have to know someone who knows someone to even get looked at, so any help would be appreciated.

I have a research and hospitality background, including stints at hotels and a travel agency.

So if you happen to be reading this and are an employee, I'd like to pass on my resume.

dcpaul, there's a thread specifically for FTers looking for employment opportunities through FT. We're going to merge your thread in with that one. I hope you find what you're looking for

Regards,

Jenbel

if there are any networking gurus out there (ideally 7+ years experience) who have excellent customer service skills, please pm me. Positions located in various countries.

Position is filled

I'm interested but what do you mean by being 'new' to the job/working world?

Position is more entry level than senior.

I might as well toss my hat in the ring as well:

I am currently a commercial credit underwriter (general industries, $20MM+ segment) at one of the top two banks in the US and am seeking a corporate finance, consulting, banking or related position which has significant international travel opportunities.

I'm highly adaptable, a voracious learner, and a self starter. I have significant experience structuring commercial loans, analyzing financial statements and cash flows. I'm seeking a position with international travel opportunities so that I can broaden my experience and because I really love travel.

Feel free to email me at wdearman [at] gmail.com, PM me or find out more about me on LinkedIn.
