To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Susan Heun. My husband and I recently re-located from Phoenix,
AZ to Denver, CO at the beginning of June 2010.
While in Arizona, I was laid off my job with Mitchell Sweet and Associates
(MSA) after 22 plus years because the company had to close their doors due
to the economy in Arizona.
I stayed with MSA because of the challenges, team atmosphere, and the
respect we all had for each other. I was with MSA from 1985 to 2008.
After being laid off from MSA, I was offered and accepted a position at
Debt Settlement USA (DSUSA). Unfortunately, DSUSA also suffered from the
economy and I was once again laid off. I was with DSUSA from 2008 to 2009.
I began looking for work immediately. DSUSA called me back four months
later to offer me another position. Although I would like to have retuned,
my husband was offered and accepted a job in Denver, CO. I could not
accept the job knowing that I would be leaving Arizona within 2 months.
I am now looking for employment in the Denver area. I will be able to
start a position no later than June 15, 2010.
My goal is to find another company, small or large, to spend my next 22
plus years with.
I am sending my resume to you in hopes that we could set up an interview to
see if I would be a good fit for your company.
Some of my qualities/skills are:
. Loyalty to a company
. Flexibility to do whatever is asked of me
. Willingness to learn whatever comes my way
. Leadership by example
. Self Motivated
. Multi Tasking
. Ten Key by touch
I want to work in an environment where each person is respected and works
as a team. Although salary is important, it is not the most important
aspect of a job for me. I am prepared to start over.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
Susan A. Heun
