24 comments:

  1. 1. Trust, desire to work, and ability to work in the "team".
    2. I think trust is the most applicable to myself because I'm an employee you can trust to come in and do the job correctly. I think the desire to work applies the least to me because even if I have extremely low work ethic just for a little while I still won't be able to hide it.
    3. Work Ethic, Flexibility, Communication, Self confidence, computer literacy, research, willingness to learn, team work, honesty, initiative
    4. Active listening, decision making, complex problem solving
    5. Complex problem solving because that puts a lot of responsibility on your shoulders.
