A little bit about you

You’ve had to get good at something and enjoyed the journey of being challenged as you learned. You could give a TED talk on being goal oriented and happily have put yourself out there to accomplish your goals. Others may have described you as dogged, unflappable, or passionate with high-energy. When meeting new people, you’re excited to learn about what makes that individual unique from others. You also may be a bit of a web-sleuth, able to track down and reach out to anyone of interest -- without being creepy. You’ve explored your career options and figured out, it doesn’t matter where you end up as long as you’re working with people. Now you’re ready for what’s next. 

Qualifications

• Excellent interpersonal skills

• High level of energy, motivation, drive, enthusiasm, initiative, commitment, and professionalism
