I'm assuming you are Ryan Petersen.

You put me in the interview loop last time after Sam introduced us via email in 2018. I even told you in that email that I lacked a degree, 2 months later received the following email from someone at Flexport:

>Hope all is well, Ryan! I wanted to extend a virtual wave and thank you for your interest in joining our team. You obviously have many of the skills we're looking for. However, for the Customs Brokerage role we require a BA/BS degree as well as previous experience in a broker role doing entries and customs classifications.

>Based on your background, there is no doubt that you will shine in your next career endeavor. In the meantime, I hope you have a fantastic rest of your week!

>All the best,

>REDACTED

At that time I was unmarried and did not own a house and was somewhat open to moving to another state to work for you. Now that's not much of an option, my wife is a public school teacher and we've been home owners for a year now.
