Our attraction strategy often involves advertising our vacancies through other forums, such as recruitment websites, social media, recruitment agencies, local and national newspapers, as well as here on our website. Following the closing date for an application process, our recruitment leaders consider all applications and short list applicants. All unsuccessful applicants are notified at this stage by email. Shortlisted applicants are then invited to participate in a selection process. This process may include a meeting with the recruitment manager, a panel interview or presentation, and a work, behavioural and psychometric evaluation. The recruitment manager then contacts the preferred candidate to let them know they will be making referee checks. Finally, the recruitment manager notifies the successful candidate of their successful application and advises unsuccessful shortlisted applicants by phone.
