You will take ownership of your learning while being comfortable to ask for guidance when appropriate from more experienced colleagues.

You will have strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to tailor this to your audience. In addition, you can build good working relationships quickly and possess strong collaboration and interpersonal skills.
