>> The biggest thing that stands out with me is personality.
Someone who will-- when they walk up they're looking you
in the eye, they're shaking your hand.
There's a certain confidence in their general demeanor.
Friendliness, obviously this is a people person job.
If we were working in a different avenue of construction where we weren't working as close
with the homeowner, with the actual people,
then people skills may not necessarily have as much to do.
But in this particular area that I'm in, your people skills need to be well developed
because you're going to be dealing with a variety of different personalities.
And the way that you deal with them is going to say whether you're going to get the job or not.
And so good people skills, courteous and polite, and the ability to speak clearly,
obviously all those things are in order-- a good smile.
I mean just a, you know, I'm excited.
I'm glad to meet you.
I'm glad that I'm in your home, you know, that kind of thing.
Those things are the things that stand out.
You can have skills but no people skills and you're really not going
to do very well in this business.
