Ability to commute/relocate:
  • Burlington, MA 01803: Reliably commute or planning to relocate before starting work (Required)
Application Question(s):
  • A client has been consistently questioning invoice details and “micromanaging” the job inquiring why certain colleagues or team members are required to be there. Their tone written and verbal has been seemingly condescending. Leaving you frustrated. In detail, please write how you would respond.
  • In detail, tell us about a time you used written communication skills to persuade a client of a mandatory change to their plans.
