I carved a niche for myself in an international software testing company with clients in South Africa, The United Kingdom, Canada, The United States of America, and Australia as a Business and English Language Consultant. I found a distinct need within the professional world for professional imaging. I found that almost all of the students the company was training had no idea of how to compose and present themselves, both physically and on paper, in the professional environment as these learners all came from disadvantaged communities. I assessed the entire reason for the shortfall and came up with a training solution to correct this problem, which was successfully implemented. I was proactively involved in the improvement of various companies through my placement company – Outsourcing Innovations (who placed me at Test and Data Services). I worked full time via the internet on reasonable flexi time. Legal documents, magazine articles, marketing proposals, and CVs were sent to me via email for professional quality control. I edited and improved on these documents and then returned them via email to the individuals who requested them. I created professional CVs, professional profiles, and professional cover letters which accompanied CVs to leading companies all over the world. I was also intimately involved in process engineering and re-engineering throughout the main company I was contracted to – Test and Data Services. I authored a training course called Professional Profiling which was successfully rolled out through Test and Data Services training center. The course taught new recruits, students, and experienced employees, as well as Test and Data Services HR and management, how to effectively look for clients and employees, how to research companies to prepare for contact and interviews, how to conduct themselves during the interview using what they had learned through their research and a through a clear understanding of their own body language and that of the interviewer, and how to follow up on the interview. The company was very pleased with the result as they had a 100% placement rate for staff that had completed the training. I home schooled our three children from grade 0. This year my youngest will graduate. I consider my greatest achievement in life to be that I had the privilege to teach all three my children how to read. While I was very happy in my job at Outsourcing Innovations, I was unable to continue to work due to a serious injury from a car accident in December 2004 in which my back, neck, and nervous system were severely injured. I was forced to resign due to the overwhelming pain and severe memory and concentration problems in 2008 and have been doing freelance work ever since.
