Candidates in the Crowd: Pete Herrnreiter

Today's Candidate in the Crowd is Pete Herrnreiter

As The #ShuftanJobReport roars with OVER 11,600 subscribers!!!!!!, I am rolling out my second phase to help people. I post the report on M/W/F and want to use T/Th to feature excellent candidates. I built this community as a way of bringing together job searchers and those who are hiring.

As an homage to Sports Illustrated's "Faces in the Crowd," I titled "Candidates in the Crowd." This is a white space for candidates to discuss their previous work, hopes, and dreams and show off anything to the network. The Candidate will capture a hiring manager's attention, and good things will happen. Make sure you are following The Shuftan Job Report for all prior Candidates in the Crowd posts and job postings.
