Debra Jaquez is a high-potential Human Resources Recruiter who is currently developing her generalist skills. Her strengths include her intelligence (very quick study), listening and execution, composure during difficult situations, sense of urgency, and her organizational skills. She has strong skills in software applications (Excel, PwrPt, etc.). She fits in with any team and is the perfect cross-functional committee member -- she is very curious and loves to learn new things. I highly recommend Debra to any hiring manager....you will be happy you made that decision. Sharon Green, HR Director Cardinal Health - 661-803-7389
