• Excellent communication and comprehension skills with the ability to detect errors in written communication and pick up on important information when reading
• Knowledge of professions within various industries and business segments

We work on roles that encompass office administration, recruiting, project management, software engineering, marketing, and finance, among other things, and are looking for candidates who can begin to make an impact in their first week of employment, therefore:

• Related experience or education/training in one or more of those areas is a plus
