To Whom It May Concern:
Thank you for taking the time to review my resume.
I have been working for Wal-Mart for over 19 years. I spent 13 years as a VP Administrative Assistant.
I have been working Walmart Construction for 6 years. I currently work for the Sr. Director of Mechanical Services, Barry Kitterman and his Direct reports.
I have 10 years experience in the Banking industry and another 10 years in the Securities industry.
I started working very young and have always excelled in my positions, allowing me to cross train and accept promotions in both those industries.
I am not afraid of challenges and I enjoy learning.
I was selected in the banking industry to work in a very busy 2-man branch outside the Oak Lawn Race Track in Hot Springs, AR.
I was also selected to train for a new banking system in Little Rock and return to Hot Springs to train the staff of both branches on the new system at First Federal Savings of Arkansas. I was selected for the same duties in Silverdale, WA at Kitsap County Bank almost 10 years later.
I served as a Super User for an application rollout for Wal-Mart Real Estate, which required facilitation of training classes on the new application to Store Planning Field Managers.
I have been recognized as Associate of the Month three times during my career.
I completed the Administrative Assistant Certification and the Realty Management Development Program.
I have also completed a series of HR classes.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any further questions.
Sincerest regards,
Lisa Nicholas
