To whom it may concern,
Please review the attached resume. I recognize that my age may be a negative factor in a competitive marker, however I hope the solid work history will override those concerns. I am healthy, active and quite energetic (for an old guy.)
I have a long history of developing major accounts, major contract negotiations and long term client relationships. Although I have been a staffing industry executive and owner, I can comfortably work in a team atmosphere either is business development and/or product delivery. I can work as a direct employee or as a consultant at your convenience.
I know and understand many of the staffing industry nuances and am able to offer cost-efficient solutions to many of the trending issues.
If you take the time to give me a call, I promise not to be a pest.
Sincerely
Arthur Grider
