Success Stories
Brief Testimonial for SFTA

For the past 4 plus years I have been on the road supporting a Global company with headquarters in Nashville Tennessee. I was responsible for supporting the company's Infrastructure. This included 2 significant Data Centers (both based in Buffalo, New York), 25 Call Centers across North and South America and 5 Distribution/Fulfillment Centers. Needless to say this was a 24 by 7 operation.

As I looked at my career it reinforced my preference to stay local (South Florida) and leverage my technical/business background to help technology oriented company grow and mature.

Contacts through the SFTA positioned my resume at a growing technology company that didn't specifically have formal position opened for a person with my experience and background. After discussions with the Chief Operating Officer a position was established that more closely aligned with my experience.

With the assistance of the SFTA, my resume was reviewed by people at this organization that shared my vision and looked beyond the formal postings. I found and accepted a position with a great company, Authentium, thanks to the SFTA.
