How have your previous employers earned your loyalty?
"I value when leaders respect their employees and give them a voice. It's important that leaders are open to feedback and ideas, and that fosters a culture of trust and respect, ultimately building loyalty as well. I also find I'm loyal to those with a positive attitude and who are people-centric, genuinely caring for their team members."
"The last department I worked in devoted the time and resources to build on trust. I consider myself an ethical person with a lot of integrity. So I'm interested in partnerships that embrace and practice those same values. Practice what you preach and make me proud of that partnership. If I can tell people what I do with a badge of honor, you've earned my loyalty. That's the way it was, and that's what I hope to find as I usher in the next chapter of my career."
