What else are we looking for in a candidate?

We value individuals who have a thirst for learning and growth, those from whom others can learn, and those who’ve demonstrated commitment throughout their working history. We appreciate professionals who've navigated the full product lifecycle – from conception to completion, from design to production – and stood by their clients through thick and thin. We seek those who understand a consultant’s role and are ready to step up as trusted advisors for our clients. 

Strong interpersonal skills are vital in our collaborative work environment and when working within cross-functional teams. We cherish clear communication, active listening, and effective teamwork – while placing a high emphasis on mutual respect.
