We try to make specialists feel really as a part of their departments. They’re not just doing busy work, and getting coffee, doing the classic intern work. You’re working directly on client accounts with your supervisors. We give them [key performance indicators] to meet on their term, we do check-ins with them, so they pretty much feel a part of the company and will strive to improve.
