Career Coach!
Yes you can be my Career Coach.
I need some career advice. Heres my situation.
I am 24 years old and have Bachelor in Business Administration with specialty in economics and finance. I have few hours on my MBA and I also started the Industrial Engeneering Bachelor's of Science Degree (60 hours to completion). I can speak and write both English and Spanish. I am also a web programer and can work with Flash, Macromedia Dreamweaver, Basic HTML, and many other website design software. I can also use Microsoft Office, minitab, and some Quickbooks.
The following is my most recent work experience (keeping Company Names Confidential):
Operations Manager, companyname, city, TX (January 2008 – Present).
Organize, motivate and lead sales teams in the industrial maintenance industry. Responsible for the aggregate performance of various sales teams while ensuring they reach their targets. Design and implement incentive schemes and sales goals. Other duties include allocating areas to sales executives, liaising with customers, maintaining detailed knowledge of the company’s products and services as well as the competitors. www.name.com
Small Business Consultant, compnayname Consulting, Various, TX (March 2007 – Present) Responsible for assessing business conditions, developing, planning and implementation of strategic plans, performing cash flow analysis, identifying inefficient operation areas, defining strategies & plans to improve business profitability and growth. Creation of various internet applications, websites, and logos.
Budget Analyst, name Construction Inc, city, TX (July 2007 – January 2008) Duties include analyzing budgets and projects, variance analysis, inventory, pricing strategies, accounting data, creating sales and marketing reports, ordering and releasing materials, creating change orders, managing vendors and subcontractors for projects, monitoring project schedules and deadlines, among other duties.
Merchant Teller, Bank of name, city, TX (March 2006 – March 2007) Duties include processing basic teller transactions and providing customer service while meeting sales and performance goals. Enforcing and practicing BCCR recommended policies and procedures. Other duties include sales and promotion of credit cards, Certificates of Deposit, and other financial products and services.
Assistant Controller, regional health clinic, city, TX (Sep 2004 – June 2005) Duties include administration and record keeping of accounts payable, inventory control, managing purchasing records, creating sales reports, contacting and negotiating with medical suppliers in a Mid-Size Health Clinic.
Thats what I've done. What I want to do, however, is get a new job that pays over $35,000 a year. (Talking South Texas Dollars, California/NY Dollars is a different story) I've aplied all over the place for many different positions and although I've rejected a few jobs that did pay the amount, I have not been able to score a good job in the year that I have looked for one.
I am willing to move to almost any state in the US and pay for the moving costs myself. I am also willing to work in any management and administrative positon.
My questions to you (my career Coaches) are:
Based on my experience and education,
What position best fits my profile?
How much $$$ should I get paid?
What companies do you recomend?
What do you recomend me doing?
Thanks for your advice
