Tell us about your role and department
I am part of the HR team within Talent Acquisition, supporting recruitment across Switzerland, Ireland and South Africa. My role focuses on creating a smooth and professional experience for both candidates and internal stakeholders.
I assist with sourcing and screening talent, coordinating interviews, preparing candidate documentation and ensuring candidate and employee profiles are accurately maintained.
What has been your most exciting project?
One of my most exciting projects has been sourcing talent for Business Analyst and Software Quality Engineer roles. It has allowed me to connect with candidates from different technical backgrounds and parts of the world.
Through these interactions, I have gained a deeper understanding of the technology landscape, the skills in demand and the different career paths within these roles.
What challenges have you faced, and how did you overcome them?
One challenge has been dealing with candidates who communicate in a rude or unprofessional manner. I have learned to stay calm, remain polite and focus on the process without taking the behaviour personally.
This has helped me maintain professionalism while ensuring a positive candidate experience.
