[Leland Pate]

For the first time since I was washing dishes at Denny's I am faced with the challenge of marketing myself. I've got what I think is a pretty good draft resume. I've passed it around the office as well as having my inlaws look at it. I am hesitant to post the entire thing publicly but if some of you manager-types out there wouldn't mind taking a look at what I've got ... I'd really appreciate it. Just shoot me an email and I'll send it asap.

For everyone else, please feel free to throw out tips, advice, or funny stories. I'm just a little nervous. I'm entering the private sector after ten years of military service. It's daunting and exciting as hell at the same time.

FYI, my background is primarily in law enforcement, security, counter-intelligence, and explosives.
