Verizon:
From: "Benfield, Shane" <shane.benfield@verizon.com>
IE's,
I graduated from Tech as an IE in May, 2001. I have been working for
Verizon Communications since 6/25/01. I am in the Logistics Development
Program. This is a management training program for Verizon's Supply Chain
Management division. There are 3 six month assignments. Generally there is
one each in Purchasing, Warehouse Management, and Logistics Services. If you
are interested in a career in Logistics/Supply Chain Management, this is an
excellent opportunity for well-rounded experience. Associates in the
program are treated with great respect and have many opportunities to network with
all levels of upper management. After 18 months you will be placed in a
position that matches your experience and desire with the company's needs. The human
resources manager in charge of this program has asked me to assist him in
taking and recommending resumes. So, please send me your resumes and post them on
jobtrak. Please call or email any questions you may have about the program.
The interview date is 10/10/01. I will contact some of you personally to
introduce myself via telephone or email. Attached are two documents that
offer greater detail about the program.

We need candidates for our two management trainee positions as well as four
openings for interns in the spring and this coming summer. Here is a
a copy of the advertisement for the management trainee position as approved
by Employment.
The co-op/intern opportunity was posted at the INFORMS Professional
Opportunities page at http://www.informs.org/Jobs/ads/1998.html; however, I
have learned that the Professional Opportunities is being dismantled so that
Lionheart Publishing can force everyone to submit classified ads for a fee.
At any rate, our advertisement remains at our own site at
http://www.nscorp.com/nscorp/html/jobs/coop/ie_or.html. If you could print
that page, post it through your building along with the attachment, that
would be terrific. Also if any fantastic graduate student at the
master's level that would like to consider a position with NS, please send me your resume.
