- Do you take ownership and go the extra mile without being asked?
- Are you open to feedback and constantly looking for ways to grow?
- We Do Hard Things: We don’t quit when things get hard. We press in with courage, keep a growth mindset, and do whatever it takes to get the job done. We don’t waste time on drama—we stay focused on the mission.
- Do you rise to challenges with resilience and a clear head?
- Do you consistently push through discomfort to deliver results?
