To Whom it May Concern:
My name is Linda Troiano and I have worked as a Pharmacist and Pharmacist-in-charge in Clifton, NJ for the past 20 years. I currently have an active application for reciprocity for licensure in North Carolina. I will be moving to Summerfield by the end of August and I am seeking a pharmacist position. My husband, also a pharmacist, will be staying in New Jersey until our present home sells but we expect him to join us no later than Oct 1st. He will be looking for a pharmacist position also.
Enclosed is my Resume. You will note that my pharmacy school training was in China but I had no problem passing the NABP and Pharmacy Licensing Board tests in New Jersey and becoming employed. I have lived in the US since 1996 and my English language skills are excellent.
I look forward to hearing from you and I hope that you will have a need for my skills. You may reach me at **********@*****.*** or my cell phone at 862-***-****.
