What Makes a Great Fit at Crisp:

• Collaboration : You believe the best results come from working together. You share ideas, pitch in, and elevate those around you.
• Grit : You’re curious, self‑driven, and unafraid to roll up your sleeves. You get the job done even when the path isn’t clear and adapt quickly when things change.
• People : You stay close to those we serve. Listening, learning, and building what matters most.
• Feedback : You see it as fuel. You give it with care, take it with humility, and use it to level up.
• Ingenuity : You solve problems with creativity and speed. You look for ways to streamline, automate, or improve without being asked.
