High School Basketball Official is listed under Employment on my resume. When I interviewed for my present position, as an Environmental Chemical Analyst, the president of the company spent more time discussing my role as a basketball official than discussing my background as a science educator. He was a former high school basketball player, and a big time collegiate basketball fan. I got the job.
