Who We’re Looking For

Excellence, not experience. Character, not credentials.

Awesome people who care

We’re looking for awesome people who care. It’s really just that simple. We’re very selective, but it’s about character, not credentials; excellence, not experience. Above all, we’re looking for a great fit for our client and our team.

There are a handful of things we look for above all else: trustworthiness, dependability, authenticity, caring, openness, communication, and stability. Beyond that, the people who have most enjoyed working at DereKare have tended to be intelligent, thoughtful, good-humored, easygoing, empathetic, considerate, and conscientious. Most have been a little bit unusual; many have known hardship in their lives. All have been kind, genuine people.

We’re looking for people who want to make a difference and a connection; people seeking purpose-driven work, belonging, and the ability to see and feel the good they’re doing. We choose people who intend to stick around for at least a year, because our success and vibe are based on strong relationships and excellent training.

We are welcoming to everyone, and we really mean that. Please don’t rule yourself out just because you lack confidence, have a foreign-sounding name, a face full of piercings or tattoos, anxiety, dark skin, a nonstandard lifestyle, or a body that doesn’t match your mind. We’ve welcomed it all, and we will support you.
