REQUIREMENTS
- The right attitude. We need individuals with a helpful, positive mindset. Jaded technicians with a hostile attitude towards uneducated users or clients have no place here.
- Willingness to learn. We don't expect someone to start out knowing everything, but we do expect that you will want to learn. If you show up each day willing to work and increase your skills, you will do well here.
- Excellent written communication skills. You need to be comfortable working in Microsoft Outlook, sending and receiving professionally-worded emails with clients and vendors.
- Excellent verbal communication skills. You need to be able to speak clearly and concisely to clients.
- Patience. As an On-site Technician, you will often be the first point of contact when clients misunderstand company communications or have questions. We expect you to remain calm, cool, and collected, while coaching clients through to the best possible outcome at all times.
- Organization skills. You will frequently run into situations where you may be working on one task, setting a computer, and answering client calls. You need to be able to handle situations like this in stride, without dropping the ball, forgetting, or sending information to the wrong client.
- Diligence. If management makes a request, we need you to be able to track that request down and complete it, regardless of whether it takes a day or a year. Once something has been handed off to you, we need you to take full responsibility for completing it.
- Accuracy. We work in consulting, where the accuracy of our speech and our word selection is critical. There is a large difference between telling a client that they "should" do something, versus they "need" to do something. Our success relies on your understanding and application of these linguistic differences.
- Rapid-fire task switching.
