Help us out here. What do you bring to the table? What are your salary and benefit expectations?
I have excellent people skills. Maybe that does not reflect over a computer. Salary wise, I am looking to start from the bottom since I am new to the industry. I am looking for full healthcare and I am willing to travel around the Country to help the business flourish in any way it needs.

Questioning your willingness to relocate since Trenton 90 minutes is a no go. Need to be more specific. Saying that you have people skills is not the same as training. What training have you completed recently?

I did not say "Relocate", I said "travel", there's a big difference.
Also travelling 3 hours a day for work is less than ideal, and there will be many dispensaries opening up that will be much closer to me.
Training regarding cannabis has only been watching youtube videos and looking up companies who sell seeds and Fertilizer equipment. I have also been looking at cannabis stocks as well.
Is there any specific Certification I should obtain? I am not looking to go back to a 4 year college as I am pretty old already and don't want to have to pay more dues than I need to

I get it. Travel as in expense account business trip. Self-taught is an admirable quality but formal training qualification is part of the screening process. Not sure in NJ but a budtender certificate here is $500. Course outline covers cannabinoid system, cannabis law, dispensary retail operations.
