  • Used tools like Jira Service Desk or similar platforms, or shown the ability to pick them up quickly.
  • Shown curiosity and initiative in your own learning, whether through side projects, mentoring others, taking on stretch work or proactively developing new skills.
  • Taken ownership of your time and work, staying composed under pressure and working well with others in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

Benefits
