  • Next message: David Hawley: "My Resume"

    Hello,
    
    My name is Robert Sherwood, and I am information security architect looking 
    for a new position. Please review my resume and contact me if you have an 
    opening in Northern Virginia or the D.C. Metro Area. I have been a 
    contractor (not an independant) for the past three years, so I am 
    comfortable in that environment, but I would be interested in working as a 
    permanent internal security architect/engineer as well.
    
      Please contact me to requested a formatted copy of the resume below, or to 
    discuss opportunities.
    
    I thank you all,
    
    Robert Sherwood
