I have applied for a medical sales position that you have open in LR. I noticed in one of your messages that it was still open. I also noticed that you were looking for B2B applicants. I have over 20 years B2B experience in sales, advertising, marketing, and management. I applied through Indeed as well as your my resume address. I would like to correspond with you further about the position. What is the best way to reach you. Thank you for your time, consideration and the membership to your site.

Thank you for allowing me to join the group.

Yes, I agree it has been a while. I hope you are doing well.

I am doing relatively fine. Physically and mentally I am doing well. Unfortunately I was just affected by a downsizing and packed out from Derma Sciences. Now that is the part of my life that is a little upside down right now. Sooo... I am now looking for new employment. I was working with Jodie Currie at Derma Sciences and she gave you a glowing recommendation. I was wondering if we could talk briefly sometime in the beginning of this week? I would love to catch up and reconnect and see if you were working on any employment searches that may be a good fit for my qualifications.

I hope that fits into your schedule. If it does, please leave me a day and time that will work for you. If not please give me some alternative dates. I am really looking forward to speaking with you soon.

Best regards,

Roxanne Mitchell

These PICS are for subcuticular closure with a 3-0 Plain and finished with Dermabond for skin. Even though I've been doing this for a while it feels good every time. Assisted in brining a new life in the world and independently closing with a plastics mentality so mommy can still have her grace and confidence post surgery. That's INTEGRITY....FEELS GOOOOD, :) .
