Sherry Purdy has endorsed your work as Merchandiser administrator at CMG.
Details of the Recommendation: “Maria did an excellent job at CMG. She played a major role in implementing the CMG store merchandiser program, supervising payroll for the part-time employees and working with the incredible amount of real time store data provided. Maria's work was always thorough, correct and on time. She also showed concern for the employees in the merchandisers program, often going out of her way to insure any payroll issues were resolved immediately. Maria received a well deserved employee recognition award at the first 2002 CMG National Sales Meeting. It was CMG's loss when Maria and her family returned to the New York area. It will be any employer's gain to have her on their team.”
