I have been working at a knowledge process outsourcing company for over eight years, and it has developed me into dealing with various kinds of output-based projects, from searching for hard-to-find documents to communicating with clients through e-mail messages to creating company and person profiles for a database. My experiences trained me to be detail-oriented and flexible in working with different types of operations and administrative tasks.
