Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role was a general recruitment consultant type of role, resourcing and interviewing candidates and putting them through a registration process to put them out to work. We would post job ads, and use job boards mainly to source candidates.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
We (the placement students) were the only consultants in the branch. We had managers and Client Solution Partner's but all the candidates and GP streamed from us.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
