apologize to you all for cluttering up your mail boxes with this. Apparently there was a mix up with my posting, so here is the corrected version. Thank you. I am in need of your help! Recently my company has decided to close operations here, and consequently layoff or transfer everyone. If anyone on this list has an opening for a board designer, or know of one, please get in touch with me. I am well versed in the process from schematic to finished board, as well as assembly, testing, and integration of those boards. I started work here 18 years ago as a technician. As a technician, I often used tape and film to design circuit boards. Later I was involved in the testing of those same boards. I have had experience in both the design and the user end of things, and have gained a great deal of experience from both. Later, when the company wished to set up a board design group, I was chosen to form the core of the group. We began on Mentor Graphics Board Station (version 7.0), then moved to PADS PowerPCB with ViewLogic for schematic capture. My resume is available on request. I hope you will consider my application favorably, James Sams CAD Manager/Senior Board Designer Alliant Techsystems, Inc. 401 Defense Hwy Annapolis, MD 21401 Tel: (401) 266-1837 e-mail:[log in to unmask] ############################################################## IPC Designers Council Mail List provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ############################################################## To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE DESIGNERCOUNCIL <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF DESIGNERCOUNCIL ############################################################## Please visit IPC web site (http://www.ipc.org/html/forum.htm) for additional information.
