  • You have excellent judgment, and are able to deal with challenging situations with grace, fairness and kindness
  • You enjoy helping others and solving problems

  • Are willing to try new things, even with the risk of failure.
  • Are intellectually curious and open to new ideas.

  • Have strong integrity and do the right thing.
