April 14, 2011 to June 16, 2011 – Chloride Industrial Systems, (placement through Office Team Staffing)
As a member of the Chloride team I had many responsibilities, in my department and others. My main objective was to create the product manuals for our equipment, and products sent to the customer. I would create the manuals using documents saved in our job files and test reports imported from the shop. Each manual required certain documentation pertaining to the unit explaining all details and components of the electrical systems and what type of batteries were being used or housed. Once the manuals was completed and saved as a pdf file to the job folder I would print the required number of copies and mail to the customer through our FEDEX account. Other aspects of my position were making copies when asked, answering the phones and taking messages or transferring calls, opening the mail and distributing properly. I would also open all invoices, stamp with the days date and put them in the accounting inbox. I kept the common area stocked with cups, sugar, coffee, tea, etc., and help out around the office performing general duties.

Being a Loan Officer is a major responsibility and involves many hours of preparation, on files and with the customers. This position involves heavy customer service, by calling and keeping my customers informed of their loan proceedings and what is needed on the file. I also inform the agents of the progress. I make sure their files are ready for processing and underwriting by gathering the required documents pertaining to what type of loan they are looking for. During the loan program and application process I must explain the guidelines of each different mortgage loan program and determine which program is going to benefit my client the most, from there I start the loan process. After the loan has been approved and the file is given a Clear To Close, I set up the closing with my title company and inform the borrowers of the closing time, and details. I also inform them of the final HUD-1 and TIL findings, from there I get their approval and send to the title and Real Estate companies.
