From Studying Zoology to working in Student Recruitment
After university, I struggled to define my career path. I began with a graduate placement at Games Workshop's head office, transitioned to teaching, and eventually found my way into recruitment, where I've been for the past nine years.
My recruitment journey has spanned various sectors, starting in the rail industry and then moving into technology recruitment. I've had the opportunity to work with companies like Kindred and Microsoft. In 2022, I joined EY, initially in the Tax Recruitment team, before transitioning to the Student Recruitment team in 2023.
Senior Recruiter - Campaigns Team
I work in the Campaigns team at EY, where I help plan and organise on-campus activities across the UK. This includes coordinating EY attendance at career fairs and organising larger-scale EY on campus events during the autumn and spring tours.
Speaking with the next generation of talent
I enjoy speaking with candidates about what it's like to work at EY. I love seeing their enthusiasm and providing tips for success during the application process. I also love talking to students who never considered working at a company like EY, emphasizing that we welcome candidates from all backgrounds and degree subjects.
Be your true self
Sounds Simple but people forget this..
Taking part in any recruitment process can be a exciting but also daunting time, during the process always try and be your true self. Be honest with your answers and try and allow your personality to come through during the process.
Skills can be taught and but behaviours can't.
Helping to organise the EY Summer Internship induction and celebration event
At EY, we strive to provide our interns with a great start and finish to their Summer Internship. One of my main tasks last year was organising the venue for both events, which is no easy feat for 500 attendees. We successfully hosted a spectacular induction event that gave interns a fantastic start to their month at EY, followed by an amazing celebration event that received glowing reviews from the students.
