    • Ability to think independently, follow instructions, and problem-solve without direct supervision

    Preferred Qualifications

    • Prior dispatch or operations experience
    • Experience handling upset, stressed, or emotional individuals professionally
    • Ability to clearly explain and justify actions taken during a shift
