Natasha Teskey, Talent Acquisition for UK at Austin Fraser, shares her top 3 qualities when hiring internally.
Drive and ambition: Whether you are in a job where you wish to progress but can’t or have more personal goals, a drive to succeed will set prospective candidates above the rest.
Resilience: Due to the unpredictable nature of recruitment, it is necessary that potential employees have proven resilience. The talent acquisition team always seek examples where candidates have overcome challenges throughout a long period of time. This does not necessarily have to be in a sales or recruitment field with some of our consultants coming from other competitive fields such as sport.
Team fit: Recruitment consultants work extremely hard and it is always encouraged to have a strong work to life balance. At the same time, they understand that this may not be for everyone so Talent Acquisition always ensure these motivators are right for candidate’s personality.
As a company, Austin Fraser are committed to providing clients and candidates with the best service and experience and this is the same for their staff. In return for hard work, Austin Fraser provide full career progression plans with the additional support of our learning development team.
