For Job Candidates

Preferred Method To Be Contacted By A Candidate: Email Preferred Process For Following Up On Application: Email or LinkedIn. Things That Impress You In A Candidate: Honesty, ambition, and positivity. Additionally, I love to see candidates who have spent time researching the opportunity and our company offering versus blindly hitting apply based on a description. Things Candidates Must Include To Be Considered For Job: At a high level they have to include a resume that reflects experience aligned to the position for which they applied. Things That Will Disqualify A Candidate From Getting Considered: Lack of passion and a poor attitude. Even if someone has 'Rockstar' hard skills in their domain a demonstrated lack of emotional intelligence is a deal breaker. Can Candidates Apply For Multiple Positions And Not Get Penalized?: Yes
