Dear or Madam:
You seek an interviewer to work from home and that just may be the ideal
match for me.
As my resume will detail, I am a very experienced human resources
professional with a substantial background in selection, training and
talent strategy.
I hold "administrator" status in DDI's Targeted Selection and have set up
interviewing systems for both Red Bull and LowerMyBills.com. I am
certified in several leading assessments, including the MBTI, Firo-B, TKI,
As I See Myself, and others.
I currently consult with both Lee Hecht Harrison and Talent Strategy and
Career Consultants, but would welcome additional work as the aforementioned
companies currently have me "on-call". I would have the most availability
after 5:00 p.m. Monday-Friday (and weekends) which may be advantageous to
candidates who might be unavailable during the day. In any event, should
my background be in line with what you are looking for, let's talk.
All the best,
David Corbin
