March 1, 2012
MACOMB, IL 鈥 Sheila Downin, a 澳门六合彩历史记录 human resource officer, has been named the March Civil Service Employee of the Month.
According to Downin鈥檚 nominators, she 鈥渆xhibits the type of work ethic that deserves recognition.鈥
鈥淪he definitely demonstrates a plethora of remarkable qualities that contribute to a very pleasant working environment for our office, as well as the campus community as a whole,鈥 her nominators said. 鈥淪he has been an essential part, through her support of developing successful trainee applicants and through her voluntary assistance, to the pre-screening applicant assessment process. This process is vitally important for the success of the program; this is not part of her job description, but rather something that she has assisted with for years outside of her normal work duties.鈥
Downin is also credited with helping organize materials within the office to send to active-duty soldiers on a regular basis and she serves on the Civil Service Scholarship Committee.
Downin was hired at 澳门六合彩历史记录 as a Secretary II in January 1990 she moved to the Financial Aid Office in the same capacity.

In October 1990, she moved back to the Financial Aid Office as a Clerk II extra help and then in July 1990, she transitioned to a Secretary II position.
