Las Catalinas is growing, and is always looking for good people.  This is a very special place to work.  It is not for everyone, but for the right people Las Catalinas offers an extraordinarily rewarding and fulfilling experience.  Here are some of our thoughts about working at Las Catalinas:

 

• Adherence to our purpose and Core Values and Beliefs is crucial.  We must have a shared sense of purpose and mission.  Without that, it’s just a job.
• We should pay well.  Our customers do not mind paying a bit more to provide a decent living for the people that are working for them.
• Being a great place to work is contagious.  It attracts great people, and they bring on their great friends to work there later.  Referral-based recruiting from happy employees is exceptionally powerful.
• We should hire people that have attractive personalities and are fun to be around.  It does matter how they present themselves, it does matter how they smile, it does matter if they have a sense of humor, and it does matter if they are having fun themselves!
• Las Catalinas should be an international place.  We should find and recruit interesting people from around the world.
