Is this a thing that "companies" ask for? Is this referencing something I don't know about?
I have never seen this, it seems like something someone not a native English speaker would write, when I see "gritty people", I think "dirty" or "unrefined", that's what the word "gritty" means to me, I don't know why a company would ask for that.
