The employment reality

Unfortunately, not all companies are created equal. At Guardian, we think ownership is the key to an agile business and a successful future. When choosing a career, consider these questions:

. Are you held back by your current organization’s rigid structure and pre-established career path?
.Do you desire to make an impact each day, but feel held back by “red tape”?
.Are you driven by the prospect of influencing your team and affecting the bottom line?

What it takes to be successful

On the most fundamental level, determination and a positive outlook can turn a good company into a great company. Ask yourself:

. Are you driven by raising the bar further than you even thought possible?
.Do you enjoy supporting others in their success while driving your own?
.Do you pick yourself up and push on when you fall?
.Do you believe that failure is only a result of no longer trying?
.Do you take the initiative to go above and beyond what is expected?
.Are you driven to make an impact and do whatever it takes to achieve results?
.Do you excel when being held accountable for results?
.Are you willing to relocate to support the needs of the organization and to grow in experience and expertise?
.Are you open to traveling to meet the needs of the business?

A steadfast commitment

Dedication and integrity are two characteristics that can go miles in describing an individual - and a culture. How would you respond to the following:

. Are you focused and committed to safety?
.Do you expect to win, while still appreciating the concept of a true team?
.Are you fueled by the thought of just making it happen?
.Do you thrive in an environment where you can take the ball and run, knowing you’ll be supported in whatever direction you choose?

The expectations are set

A successful employee/employer relationship depends upon setting expectations for both parties, and then reaching them. Or even exceeding them. At Guardian, you’ll know from day one what we look for in our people. And what we offer in return.

. Is your ideal environment one where the status quo is challenged?
.Do you believe that by asking questions, greater results are achieved?
.Do you think that working hard and playing hard go hand-in-hand?
.Is healthy competition something you look forward to?
.Can you thrive in an environment where both the individual and the team can succeed?
.Will you enjoy a workplace where professionals are accountable for their own decisions?
