Over qualified means they can't pay you what you are worth....so you have to take a lower wage of what you are use to bringing home

External recognition is a rarity, self motivation is and has always been my solution. Client relationships build trust, resolving any concerns as a top priority add to those relationships creating satisfaction for myself and the client.

No I’ve never been injured in the workplace however I did sustain a knee injury on the loading dock once when I was the WH manager early one morning around 4:30am and it was basically because our loading dock light was out and I stepped down off the truck ramp and stepped on the side of the dock’s curb block awkwardly because I couldn’t see it clearly due to non lighting that morning that was my only injury on the job I did return to work after my rehabilitation and continued to do my job I was hired to do for Pan handle deli provision/ Boars Head inc

I reviewed my resume to make sure it was not redundant and repetitive, that it was relevant, and tracks my career in a way that makes sense to recruiters and the tools they use like ATS and Ai assistance.

Jobs for Veterans

As a 21 year Navy Vet, I am finding it hard to get a blue collar job just to supplement my retirement income. Why is it so hard to understand that I just want to work as a forklift operator and not a plant superintendent? #jobsearch #advice #interview #application #motivation
