- You’re a relationship builder: You are naturally able to build rapport quickly such that you quickly become a go-to in the office as a warm helpful resource.
- You’re hardworking: You are endlessly reliable, trustworthy, and consistent in your ability to produce the highest quality work, even outside the confines of a 9-5 job.
