Professional Summary
I am applying for the Dispatcher/Transportation Coordinator position with your firm. As you can see in my resume, I have many years of transportation experience. As well as supervisor experience working with various drivers, walkers, bikers within the transportation field. As a Dispatcher/Supervisor I had been assigned at any given time either just drivers or multiple groups to dispatch throughout the city and beyond. I had to address all barriers (on time, lateness, accidents (if any), traffic patterns, weather, parking issues which had to be documented in the system. My goal was to make sure the pickup and delivery of said package went as smoothly as possible. I know my resume does not reflect my dispatching abilities, but I have been in the transportation field for over 25 years. I would like to continue with something I know and I'm very good at.
During my employment history I have worked with many diverse types of people with varying personalities, needs, and backgrounds. This helped me gain valuable communication, interpersonal, assessment and organization skills. The key strengths that I have gained during my employment history is an excellent attention to detail, being a team player as well as being able to interact with people on all levels. I feel that I would excel in this position due to my ability to multitask, work independently or on a team and the ability to complete all assigned tasks in a timely manner. I do have the passion and the drive for the profession. I know how to work on all the dispatch software out there, OMD. Nextgen, Datatrac, Medioport and any other ones that are windows base applications. II have been dispatching couriers, independent contractors, and technicians. I look forward to hearing from you so that we can set up an interview. Thank You
