I am a honest, reliable and hard working person. Looking for a good position on a temporary basis.
I live local and would like an opportunity to fill a administrative position due to lack of business in the real estate market. My hours are very flexible and can start a position immediately. I would appreciate an opportunity to apply for a position in your company. Thank you!
