Assistant Professional Openings?

[RBFtmd]

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm currently a student at The Golf Academy of America in Myrtle Beach, SC. Upon my graduation in April, 2011, I'll be relocating to the Charlotte/Rock Hill area. I hope to find an assistant professional job and begin my PGA Apprenticeship. I'd like to reach out to anyone that may know of any openings that could be a good fit for someone like myself.

 

Aside from my enrollment at the Golf Academy, I have a bachelors degree in business administration with a concentration in marketing, and have previous experience in sales, purchasing, inventory management, and customer service. Please have a look at my resume. If you know of any openings, think I may be a good fit, and would like to help out a fellow golf lover, please let me know! I'm an energetic and eager person ready to begin my career with the PGA!

 

Thanks very much.
