created new report visualizations, built new databases, and maybe
you’re even thinking of taking on an interactive reporting project
in Qlik. You will continue to learn at VaultU and start to develop
a lunch and learn or VaultU course of your own. You will continue
to have a close relationship with your mentor and may even have a
mentee of your own. You will be streamlining your projects for
efficiency and brainstorming about the skills or software you would
like to learn in the next year. We want you to be promoted within
two years of beginning your career at Vault. Other Interesting Information: Why do you like working at Vault? The amount of support you get
at Vault cannot be beaten. From orientation, to the mentorship
program, to the open-door policy everyone has, you are never
without someone to help you with a question or problem. Between all
our team members in the research group, there is usually someone
who has seen the issue you are having before and can coach you
through how to handle it or will dig into the problem with you to
find a solution. The people are really the best part of
Vault. What is the second best part of this job? You will never be
bored here. You be challenged with new issues at clients, new
systems and software, new client relationships. We want you to be part of the family! Besides the 5 weeks of
