You need to be detail-oriented and willing to go the extra mile to get the job done right the first time. In our practice getting it done right the first time for our clients is very important and we need everyone to work with this goal in mind. If this seems too much to ask of you, don't apply for this job. As a way to test your attention to detail we have included a question on our application which reads “Do you feel attention to detail is important?” Please answer this question by placing the words 'apple Pie and nothing else in the space provided for your answer.

 

You must be a team player. We are strong believers in the team approach, so if you are not a team player, this is not the job for you.

 

You need to be able to interact with people in a manner that is polite, educated, and puts them at ease.

 

You cannot talk down to anyone that you deal with in our office. You need to have compassion when dealing with those you meet as part of our team.

 

Your ability to listen to what you are being told and ask to follow is very important. If you cannot listen, understand, evaluate and interview someone, this is not the job for you.

 

You MUST be able to handle working with several different databases of information. If you aren't 100% confident managing data and people, you are not the right person for this job.

 

At times, you will also need to know how to figure things out on your own, creatively problem solve and come up with solutions.

 

To put it simply, we want you to earn what we are paying you. We don't want to pay you to socialize, surf the Internet, e-mail friends and family, work for another company or any other non-work related activities while you are on the clock for us. This does not mean it is not fun to be on our team, it just means we know when we have to work and we know when to have fun.

 

If this sounds harsh or unfair, then this is not the job for you.

 

At this point, some of you may be thinking that this job will be the worst job in the world. If you are, this is not the job for you.

 

If, on the other hand, you realize that such a team will help you get your job done efficiently and also have a life outside of work, then you are the type of candidate we would like to discuss the opportunity we are offering.

 

If you are hired, you will be part of a wonderful team of people, who work hard to get the job done right the first time and take pride in the work that they do. You will be part of a team that is rewarded for their hard work.

 

Regarding compensation, it is negotiable based upon experience and is subject to review after 90 days. The starting pay range is $1,300 US Dollars a month during training. After 90 days, if you have completed your training and established yourself as a valuable member of the team you will receive an increase of salary to $1,500 a month. If you prove to be invaluable to the team, your pay will increase even further after the first 15 months.

 

You will be challenged but you will have fun and you will enjoy helping our clients.

 

If you have gotten this far, you are truly an exceptional worker looking for a professional team, as most people will have stopped reading this ad a long time ago. You want to be part of a team where your hard work and efforts are recognized, appreciated and rewarded.
