Local Industry Job Opportunity

[Byrd007]

Hi!

I didn't see a forum specifically related to posting jobs but if I missed it, please feel free to reprimand me and move this post accordingly. In any event...

I work for a company in Burnsville, MN that is in the firearms industry publishing business and we're branching out into the gun sales business. Woot! The expansion is huge, it's an exciting time and there's several job opportunities. At the moment, we're primarily looking for new staff to support our nationwide network of FFL dealers.

The job description is below and don't let the title confuse you - we don't have "rangemasters" in the traditional sense because we don't have a range - but we call our customer/dealer service staff rangemasters because everybody listens to them!

If you're interested, send me your resume and cover letter. Please also specify your availability (days/hours) and salary requirements. These are full time positions with full benefits.

Please send resumes/cover letters to: chip.smith@guns.com

Thank you!
