EMPLOYMENT OBJECTIVES
My goal is to work in nuclear energy, and to expand my practical knowledge of this diverse field. With this expansion, and with the help of varied assignments, my value to my employers will increase quickly. I look forward to all facets of the training this energy field can provide as opportunities to further my knowledge base and team up with others to reach our mutual goals.
One of my strong points lies in my ability to verbally educate and communicate with people about nuclear energy and both technical and practical issues in this field. Other strong points include my dedication and commitment as well as my skills in written communication.
