My duties consist of reviewing freight manifests to ensure accuracy of shipping
information and proof that the freight matches up with the information on the bills
of lading, manifest and any other corresponding paperwork that may accompany
freight such as a proper Form A, Form 8125, and OSD (Overage, Shortage and
Damage) Forms.
If in the event freight does not match up exactly to the bill of lading and manifest,
it is my job to track the origin of the freight to find its proper loading location; this
also includes:
- Re-weighing the freight if the weight is heavy or light by fifty pounds.
- Ensuring that the total number of units being shipped is correct according to the
bill of lading.
- Repairing any damage to the freight if possible (or making a damage report if
unable to repair.)
- Creating a report if freight does not match the bill of lading and any FedEx
Shipping labels.
- Attempting to locate a proper bill of lading for any un-manifested freight, or
creating a new bill of lading.
- Verifying all information on any international shipment is correct and authentic.
It is a critical point of my job to ensure that all international shipments (imported
or exported) have the proper paperwork (Form A, bill of lading, etc.) for transport.
I must also label them with necessary identification labels and tape, and ensure
that the shipment is compliant with FedEx code and national/international law.
I also work with hazardous materials being shipped. I must ensure that each
hazardous material is loaded properly and with the correct matching paperwork
both on the bill of lading and on the manifest; I also placard the corresponding
trailer with the proper hazardous material placards. I am well aware of laws and
watch lists pertaining to hazardous materials and non-hazardous materials
nationally and internationally. I am well trained in reading, interpreting and
advising others on the usage of the Material Safety Data Sheets MSDS) manual. I
am also well trained on the loading procedures of all FedEx applicable hazmat
shipments.
I work closely with supervisors to ensure that all freight is moved accurately and
in a timely manner. I give daily reports on any damaged, lost or unknown freight if
any is located. I also work alongside OSD Personnel when any freight deemed
OSD is located. I also inventory and manage any appointment or dock-pick up
shipments for the next day.
I am also a trainer of new hires to FedEx Freight/LTL. I train employees on the
basic loading procedures, hazmat loading, forklift operation and maintenance and
rules, regulations and laws.
I am formally trained to use a LPG powered forklifts and attachments such as
clamp-trucks, roll/barrel attachments, and side shifters.

My duties consisted of address canvassing and quality control for the 2010
Census. A normal day would involve me canvassing a selected area; that would be
appointed to me by my team leader, and ensuring that all previous information that
had been gathered by the person who did the initial canvas was correct. If the
information was not correct, I would have to re-canvass the location by using a
hand-held GPS computer to make map plots on a digital map.
It was also my job to notify people of my position, and inform them about the
importance of the 2010 Census. I would ask them for their cooperation by letting
me know how many people lived in the current home for the purpose of
demographics. I also let homeowners know that I would be canvassing the area
and plotting map points so they would not be alarmed at my presence.

Package Loader/Line Sorter
Supervisor: Jose Reyes 214-***-****)
Okay to contact this Supervisor: Yes
My duties involved sorting, scanning and continually lifting, lowering, sliding and
loading packages into UPS trailers for transport to cities around the United States.
I am proud to say I was one of the few employees who had learned most of the zip
codes for my area (known as the Green.)
As a line sorter, I sorted packages to their correct locations by zip code and city
name. It was my job to ensure that every package that passed through the line was
on its way to the correct location. Any packages I caught that did not belong I
would have to put aside until I was able to find their correct location. Eventually I
began continually working up to three sort lines daily during different times when
packages were backing up the line. I received much praise for my speed and
accuracy when sorting during this time.

Management Service Hours per week: 20
Laredo, TX US
Temporary/ On Call
Supervisor: Nery Diaz 956-***-****)
Okay to contact this Supervisor: Yes
As a temporary/on call employee I would get a call early in the morning or the
night before to verify if I would be available for work. I would report early
morning to the company requesting a temp. I worked with three companies that
would request for me to be their temporary worker, because they knew I was a
hard worker and would not quit until all the work was finished or until told
otherwise. My salary would be determined by the company.
Coca-Cola
My duties were to support the delivery driver in delivering coca-cola products to
schools and businesses. It was my job to load vending machines with drinks in
their proper vending chutes. During this time, most schools were doing away with
sport drinks, so I would remove all sport drinks and replace them with juices
instead. I also would remove all cash and coins from the machines, count it and
placed it in a bag where the driver would then add it to a lock box at a later time.
UPS
My duties were to load and unload freight to UPS Trucks for transport to cities
across the USA. During this time, I also took inventory of any freight that was
classified as damaged.
TNI Expediter
My duties included but were not limited to loading and unloading packages on to
trucks. I was also trained on taking inventory on merchandise coming or going out
of the warehouse. I was told I was one of the fastest inventory takers in the
warehouse.

Okay to contact this Supervisor: Yes
As a volunteer for a women shelter my duties included but were not limited to
having good communication skills both in Spanish and English and good customer
Service skills since I was dealing with very complex and emotional people I had to
have compassion and understanding. Once the women were interviewed I started
compiling information using Microsoft Word to create a file. I would compile,
maintain and update information to keep all information up to date. I created a
database using Excel to update appointments for the women in the shelter. I would
answer phone calls and provided non confidential information to Attorneys, family
members and Domestic Violence Advocates. As a Coordinator during my senior
year my responsibilities included but were not limited to recruiting, interviewing
and training new helpers/runners. I was also responsible for time and attendance
and employee’s schedules. I developed a plan of action to go out to the community
once a month to ask the community for donations of clothes and toys. Once a week
I would help with inventory on the clothes donated to the shelter and I would help
with the washing, folding and with the distributing of the clothes and toys
accordingly. I created a PowerPoint presentation to keep the children entertained
while their mothers were in counseling or training for a job. Even though I was a
volunteer, I believe this has been the most gratifying experience in my life. I feel
good about helping the innocent; victims and children.
