Starting a New Chapter is Easiest if You Are an Open Book
There are 3,648 miles between Brianna H.’s previous job in Seville, Spain and her current job here in Philadelphia, however there is no distance between our expectations and her ability to do a great job. That is why Brianna has been Chosen as Philly Temps & Perm Employee of the Month for November 2020.
With the goal of a career in Library Science, Brianna is keenly aware of the power of obtaining and sharing information. This is obvious in her ability to clearly communicate her expectations as well as absorb any details being shared with her.
Brianna’s dedication and professionalism showed us that when we needed someone to take more of a leadership roll on a large project, we only had to make one call.
We appreciate Brianna for not only her hard work, but for the reminder that communication is the key to success in any endeavor.
