Bio
Mark Hewitt
I worked with Jeff as a Territory Sales Manager and as a Sales Development Associate. Jeff excelled at these two positions and was promoted twice in a relatively short period of time. Jeff demonstrated a keen understanding of business and possesses a big picture perspective from his international experience. I could always count on Jeff to provide high quality work in a short period of time. I recommend Jeff highly to any future employer.
John Grubin
I directly managed Jeff Yoon for over 3 years as an Intern & Territory Sales Manager at Altria, and I am pleased to offer this recommendation for Jeff. Jeff brought passion to the job from day one, and that really impressed me since it is something that is nearly impossible to teach. His competitive spirit was the driving force behind his sales successes, and he always had a winning attitude even in difficult situations. As the newest member on my team, he quickly gained respect of his team mates by quickly becoming an expert in his role by taking ownership of his own development. Once he mastered his role, he sought additional management responsibilities to prepare him for the next role. Given the leadership skills he demonstrated under my span, I have no doubt that he will excel in any scope of responsibility he is assigned to. I highly recommend that you give Jeff Yoon your consideration. He is a result driven, team player with highest degree of integrity that would make a great asset to any organization.
