Greetings – How are you today? I hope this email finds you well and safe.

I am an Alumnus and Retired Employee Campus Administration. I am presently working as a member and staff of Cisco System Inc. Networking hardware company – an American multinational technology conglomerate headquartered in San Jose, California, in the center of Silicon Valley. I also own a new/startup business as an Independent Construction Contractor.

Menawhile, I recognize that COVID-19 has–and continues to–rapidly change the way we work and live in an unprecedented way. The impact it has had can be felt worldwide, with institutions, universities, labs, publishers and other businesses closing their doors and moving the workforce to other places. In spite of the aforementioned snags, I have taken several steps to expand a remote access capabilities by running an empowerment job offer and opportunity in conjunction with the School Career Centers as a direct result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) disaster which has disrupted many employment situations.

I actually got your contact email on campus today through the school board when I was outsourcing and looking for a trustworthy and reliable Personal Administrative Assistant to support and assist me in running personal errands for my new/startup business as an Independent Construction Contractor. I have an immediate need for an organized, efficient, & detail-oriented individual for the position of a Personal Adminstrative Assistant due to my high workloads and busy work schedule.

I need someone to assist me with the running of my other everyday business errands and business tasks/activities so that I can be more productive with my everyday business activities in order to better serve the immediate needs of my clients. This position will come with a great deal of responsibility and trust because I am also opening a new office space/apartment in your area of location. The new office will be managed by you as my Personal Administrative Assistant. You can either work remotely or start work immediately from this new office alongside with my secretary by assisting me with running my other business errands in my absence as I am always out of town and on business travel status. The major duties and responsibilities of the eligible person will be needed mostly during the weekends and sometimes weekdays at your own convenience and this will give you free time to go on with your school work and other other regular job that you have going for you.

I am offering this job/work opportunity to you based on the school recommendation and I am willing to pay you NO LESS THAN $150 WEEKLY. Your work duties will be receiving project letters and construction materials/packages on my behalf from my clients/business partners and mailing of executed/signed project letters and construction materials/packages to my clients because of my busy schedules and daily workload – making me not easily get-at-able as I am also always out of town and sometimes out of states meeting with client(s) for proper execution of all my work responsiblities which includes meetings with business partners, execution of contracts and numerous other construction projects.

NB: The work activities for this offer does not disturb your studies/work studies or any other work that you have going well for you. This is a flexible work opportunity that could be done at your free/leisure time.
