Summary

Hi. My name is Bruce Blacket. While I am seeking employment, I wanted to provide an explanation for my brief work history. I am originally from Jamaica. My wife is American; therefore, from the U.S. I relocated here October 2022. I was provided my work authorization via immigration late August 2023. Since, I've worked at Labor Finders and Lowes. I am seeking better pay and am willing to work very hard and prove to be an asset to your company when given the opportunity. In addition to being permitted to work legally here in the states, I also have a valid state issued (MSDL), and Social Security Card. While attempting to enter the information regarding my education on your application, it didn't permit for me to include the Jamaican address for Port Antonio High School which is the school I graduated from. The information you will find for the name of the school is actually my wife's and the year is the year I graduated. Thanks.
