Hello Friend
After reading through 5 or 6 dozen resumes as our Search Team was seeking a full-time Associate Pastor and seeing the oversights by many prospects, this page was developed to remind candidates of some things which might keep them from getting fair consideration. Please accept these words, not as an expert, but rather as brothers trying to help brothers.
First Reminder: This is their FIRST IMPRESSION OF YOU. Make it good.
