 Reporting to the VP Food Service, Perry will manage and build a new food service frozen product line with 68 Sysco Operating Units nationwide. He will manage this business through a 35 Food Service Broker Network. He's excited for a number of reasons:

     "I joined this company because of it's high growth with huge opportunity. I liked the management team and their style. I am VERY confident I can move up in this organization. The food service experience is extremely valuable to my career. The 'black mark' of unemployment is off my resume should another employment opportunity cross my path in the near future. I'm very happy I overcame unemployment and age issues."

 Perry had these comments about SET:

     "The resources at SET were very good. The most help came from Lucy C. Her coaching on interviewing, correspondence, and overcoming issues from my last employer turned out to be the maximum benefit. She is a HUGE asset to your company!"

 Perry also mentioned the Industry Characteristics Profile, communication strategy, the process of uncovering all his skills, the resumes, resume distributions and sample letters, ongoing services from his entire SET team, and use of the website for finding advertised and emerging openings, contacting recruiters, and getting a lot of advice and information on job search subjects.
