Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role would include sourcing new postions from clients and then finding the best talent for those roles. I would be finding temp workers who were normally looking for short term postions. My roles would normally pay anything from 12 pound per hour to 18 pound per hour. I would be recruiting for receptionist all the way to office manager level
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given just as much responsibility as a normal full time employee. This role you are chucked into the deep end which is great as you learn quicker and actually contribute to the team
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
