Summary
I recently worked as a legal assistant and would like to return to the area of being a veterinary assistant or receptionist. I have found that working in the veterinary field was a much more rewarding and gratifying jobI worked as a veterinary assistant and receptionist for 5 1/2 years. It has been awhile since I was employed in the veterinary field, but I am sure it is like riding a bicycle, you don’t forget. I work well with a team and enjoy interaction with clients and their pets. I think I have what it takes to be a positive addition to any veterinary team.
