A Successful Candidate Will Have Strong Communication: Professionalism in person, on the phone, and in writing. Technical Aptitude: Computer proficiency with the ability to learn software quickly. Physical Agility: Ability to move between office and warehouse environments and lift up to 35 lbs. Organization: A "knack" for keeping both physical spaces and digital files orderly.
