How did you become interested in recruitment?
Whilst travelling/living in Australia, I started working in a recruitment company assisting with recruitment projects for their public sector clients. This role was a basic administration role, but it gave me a really good insight into the 360 cycle of recruitment.
What was it about Sellick Partnership that convinced you to take a role here?
Whilst interviewing for a number of recruitment companies in Manchester, Sellick Partnership definitely stood out as somewhere that I could progress in my career. I met with other companies and a lot of the interview conversation revolved around hitting targets, social benefits of the role, i.e. trips to Ibiza/drinks in the office.
Although Sellick Partnership does set targets and offer great social events throughout the year, it was clear that the development of their employees is at the heart of what they do. This made the business stand out compared to the other companies and I could see myself building a career here.
What are the best things about your role?
The people. Everyone is always happy to help if you need something, whether they are in your team or in a separate department. It’s a really friendly atmosphere and I always enjoy coming into the office and catching up with everyone.
Do you remember placing your first candidate and how did that feel?
I remember feeling really nervous as I wasn’t sure if she would accept. She did, and I remember being so excited. I instantly tried to calculate how much commission I would make and it really motivated me to start building up my billings.
What’s your biggest achievement to date in your role as a Recruitment Consultant?
My biggest achievement so far would be my contribution to the expansion of our Public Sector clients within London. We have worked hard over the past couple of years to build relationships with new clients and as a team have managed to grow this area massively.
