Arnold Sherr – Owner & President Sherr Enterprises and its resume and career coaching division,” The Resume Store”
Arnold Sherr is the owner and president of Sherr Enterprises since 1995. He began a resume business in year 2000 in New Jersey and after moving to Palm Harbor, FL named the resume division Career Acquisition and Tools. After more intense study and practical experience Arnie in 2008, changed its name to The Resume Store. This new name seemed more appropriate because of the development of his newly added marketing approach which has led to the development of a complete line of marketing materials all designed to elevate job seekers well above the multitude of unemployed, underemployed, and unhappily employed competing for similar jobs.
Prior to moving to Florida Arnie was the general manager for South Jersey Cumberland Farms Convenience Store since 1989. There he demonstrated exemplary management skills taking a store, which by all financial definition was failing and soon to sold-off, back into and beyond its once historical health. Practicing and teaching his staff the customer service excellence he writes of so prolifically, Arnie has become well respected in customer service arenas.
From 1962 until 1989 Arnie “lived” the wholesale toy business. Beginning as a showroom salesperson he soon earned a southern territory comprised of Maryland, DC, Virginia and West Virginia. His successes soon led to the promotion as National Sales Manager. The next 20 years had begun to define who he is today; an intuitive spirit with a later in life passion for writing and artistic expression. These two outlets embrace of Arnie intellectual abilities to literate excellent and interesting editorials, cognitorials, and fictitious writings; even touching on poetry as another form of literary expression he has genetically acquired from his dad.
Arnie’s studies were business administration at Temple University at Philadelphia, PA., Commercial Art, Advertising and Sign Painting at the Philadelphia Technical Institute, Philadelphia, PA., and furthered over years of seminar attendance and literary absorption from a myriad of management and customer service writings; his favorites – the McGraw Hill Briefcase Series. Arnie has written a still to be published book, “Mastering the Customer Service Puzzle.”
The past two years have presented Arnie with two strong arenas for learning and expressing joy, ambivalence, and frustration. The excitement of America’s political drama is now surrounded by the worst and worsening economic tsunami since the Great Depression. Fired up, Arnie took to creating remarkable notoriety for his clientele; a kind of “put their names in lights.” The goal: they who decide on whom to interview will be so impressed by the manner in which he so professionally presents his clients that when interviewing his they are met with the respect due them. Arnie's impressive marketing brochures and such have been directly responsible for up to an average 70% invitation rate in what has become a buyer’s market for employers.
The Internet is spattered with numerous Arnie Sherr literal representations; politics, motivational, psychological, analytical, spiritual, opinion, and so much more. He can be found on LinkedIn, Facebook, iReports, Technoratti, MerchantCircle.com, SuperPages.com, YellowPages.com, and more.
Arnie is an ardent supporter of the TSA (Tourette Syndrome Association). He has been mildly afflicted with Tourette since early teens. His mild ticks and twitches were identified as Tourette syndrome 1977. For a time he assisted fund-raising efforts for a TSA Chapter that met weekly at the Bryn Mawr Hospital in Bryn Mawr, PA.
In addition to The Resume Store Arnie writes monthly newsletters for two Clearwater, FL communities; The Twin Lakes Lodge MHP and the Coral Cove Apartment Homes. Efforts to grow this new initiative are being hampered by growing calls for resumes and a slow disappearance of potential neighborhood advertisers.
Arnie has tried donating his resume skills to returning Iraqi and Afghanistan veterans through the Department of Veteran Affairs and the VA Medical Center at Bay Pines, FL only to find that federal government bureaucracies make no room for this type of volunteerism.
Semi-retied, Arnie still works toward opening a physical street location for The Resume Store. He is quoted as saying, “Passions for that which I do now, have lain dormant too long.”
