Building the Fire - Recruit Passion

Every member of the Fire organization must have the drive to make the club the best it can be.  This is not limited to executives or department heads.  Every single person on the payroll, from the ushers to the ticket reps to the technical director to the president, must share the passion for creating an elite soccer club. 

There are plenty of potential employees that have the drive to "work in sports," but for how many of dream of working in soccer, or even for a Chicago team?  Most are willing to just to get their foot in the door.  The Fire must be selective in recruiting to create and maintain a culture of driven individuals, passionate about building the organization.  That passion is shared by the fans and expected.  No employee should be viewing their roles as "just another job" or "a resume builder."  The club should commit itself to finding and developing outstanding individuals that will commit to the Fire.  100%.  No Exceptions.
