Employment Needed
7 years ago
Hi,
In late August I was told by the University that I would not have a renewed contract for employment. I have been searching for employment since then, unsuccessfully.
I will soon be out of funds and food.
I have a back injury, spondylolisthesis grade 2, which prevents me from lifting anything and from turning my torso. This is why, the university hiring season having passed, I am now unable to find employment.
I am in need of employment. Below is my CV/Resume. Please let me know if you can offer me employment.
