John Garritano is a Management / Operations. Colleagues describe him as "Johnny was my point of contact in the Manufacturing Accounting Group at AVX Corporation. We worked together on tasks that ranged from PC and Network Server /Application access, to work-flow and process automation. He advised us on maintenance and update windows that would minimize impact on his team’s schedule. When new or upgraded applications, equipment and services were discussed and / or delivered, Johnny would make sure to understand the inevitable changes, and would help develop processes to be utilized by his team. During daily operations, if one of his coworkers encountered a technology issue, Johnny was able to quickly determine the root cause, prior to putting in a service request. If the issue was something that my team needed to address, he would re-create the issue and thoroughly document it. If it was a user-related issue, he often resolved it himself while mentoring his team mate. Johnny possesses an amazing amount of business and financial knowledge, and a thorough understanding of the underlying technology required to collect, extract, present and safeguard this valuable business data. He is also dedicated to doing a good job, on time. I remember seeing him leave after pulling 20 hour days during “crunch times”. I highly recommend Johnny as knowledgeable, dedicated individual. He is one of the best that I have worked with." and "John Garritano worked in our corporate manufacturing accounting group for 9+ years (1995 - 2004). John was originally hired as the staff accountant, but within a month, moved over to the cost accounting group to manage our advanced product line. John also became the expert / liaison with our systems and was promoted to our Financial Systems Analyst position and worked with our IT group which consisted of PC / Network technicians & programmers. During the downsizing of 2001, John also acquired the Global Intercompany Accountant position and has proven himself to be the best at both positions. When John left our department to go into AVX's Sales Dept., John gave all the managers the required documentation to perform his accounting position. Highly recommended"
