The Type of Employee Who Thrives at Key
Potential KeyBank candidates and new hires often ask "how can I be successful in my role?" and "what type of person thrives at Key?"
Our diversity is arguably more valuable than our similarities. Still, while everyone is unique and every role requires different strengths, there are a few common characteristics among Key employees.
Understanding our purpose and values is a great foundation for succeeding in your career at Key. Our purpose is to help clients and communities thrive through our values of teamwork, respect, accountability, integrity, and leadership.
To Thrive at Key, Focus On:
- Relationships: Chief among them is an ability to develop and nurture relationships — both internally and with the communities we serve. Communities are the lifeblood of this company.
