Hello Jack and thanks for the response. After reviewing your resume and experience I can tell you that technically you are a fit for the role but "environment wise" (which is just as big to my client) you are not a fit. By "environment wise" I mean currently working in the pharmaceutical or medical device manufacturing industry.
Again, I think you are a solid candidate just not for this client.
Please send me a copy of your resume in Word format to jmclean@crescentsolutions.net if you'd like for me to continue keeping you in mind.
I hope you had a great weekend and I look forward to receiving a copy of your resume.
Happy Holidays,
John McLean |
