Interview Advice:

Lots of stages so be prepared to commit to the process, the internal team are really informative and really quick moving, always be on top of your game and ready to answer any questions they throw at you. The assessment centre is quite fast paced and very reactive so just go with it and if something goes wrong don't let it affect the rest of the tasks. Director interviews always seem the most daunting but now I work for them it's silly to think why I was nervous, they are all sociable people so just be yourself and keep the conversation flowing.

Take the time to think hard about whether or not you want to pursue a career within recruitment because if you are not 100% dedicated to the job you will not succeed.

Interview Advice:

Firstly, when asked a question take a moment to think about your answer and make sure that your answers are clear and directly linked to the question. Secondly, when asked about your experience and level of skill, don't try to lie. Just be honest about what you are good at and what you are not so good at. The third piece of advice I can give, is make sure you let your personality show. Not one person comes from the same background when joining Hays ! It's your personality and ambition that will determine whether you are offered the job or not.

Read the full review »


Application Advice:

You must be really hard working, as the first 12 months are difficult. There is a lot to learn and a lot of relationships to build, so you have to accept that all your hard work will eventually pay off.
Also I think it's important to be target motivated, as there are KPI's and financial figures that need to be hit at all times. I think if you are a target driven person this will only motivate you more.

Interview Advice:

There is a 3 stage process for interviews.
The first is a telephone conversation with someone from the internal recruitment team. If you are successful and pass this stage you will be invited to attend an Assessment Centre.
This will test your skills such as presentation, your phone manner and your ability to deal with a difficult scenario. They want to see that you are a confident people person. This will last approximately a couple of hours.
You will then be invited to attend final stage interview if you successfully pass the assessment centre.
This final interview will be with your regional Director and also your prospective manager. If you are unsure what specialism you would like to recruit for, it is not uncommon for more than 1 potential manager to meet with you around this time.

Understand that it is a sales jobs and not a job centre. If you like return on your work and enjoy reward then mention that is what motivates you.

Make sure that you have done research! Recruitment isn't for everyone. That's not to say it isn't a fantastic career. It is just that many people are not aware of what the role actually entails so it is important to cover your bases.

Interview Advice:

Make sure you have visited the Hays website! Know the brand values! Really key if you want to impress! Even if you do not have experience in recruitment, it is personality and your ability to sell that will win you through.

Advice I would give to applicants that do not have any previous recruitment experience would be to research carefully the company, trying where possible to link in values and facts.

Application Advice:

Recruitment is a sales environment so if you come from a sales background, then you will do well in this type of role but your candidate is your product, therefore if you have good people management skills this is the job for you. I would suggest to have pictures or colour onto your CV to take make yourself stand out or represent yourself as a lot of people apply for jobs within recruitment. Do research before on successful recruitment consultants and find out tips on what it is that makes them successful.

Interview Advice:

Be prepared for questions around recruitment (why you want to work in recruitment or what you know about recruitment). I don't believe it is critical but if you have an idea of what sector you are interested in within recruitment and provide some market knowledge around that sector. Before the interview, I would prepare a list of strongest and weakest skills, so the strongest skills make you stand out and your weaknesses aren't big enough for it to affect you from doing well in recruitment.

Application Advice:

I would advise candidates that if you are going to apply for a role in recruitment, you need to have a strong head for this! Recruitment is all about sales, being target driven, business development, and bringing out the best in yourself and Hays as a company! It is a competitive role, but that buzz and rush of adrenaline you get when you hit your target or grow your fees is one of the best feelings you will ever get, so being highly motivated is key! You learn so much about yourself when you take up this role, identifying what your strengths and weaknesses are. Everybody at Hays is so friendly and welcoming, and it feels like we are one big family! It honestly is one of the best companies to be a part of!

Interview Advice:

The key to interviewing is just be yourself! Your interviewers have shortlisted you for a reason - that in itself is an achievement. You may get asked questions where you have to relate personal experiences back to the questions, so try to be as specific as possible. Also, doing small things like smiling, nodding your head, making eye contact, or asking further questions will look like you are engaged with your interviewer and interested in what he/she is saying.

Personality - working in recruitment I know that the most successful candidates I place are the ones with the best personalities. It's important to have the knowledge but just as important that you get along with people as you'll sometimes spend 8+ hours a day in an office with these people.
Researching the company you applied for - researching a company is impressive but it also gets you excited, this then comes off well in your applications and interviews.

Research the office you are applying to work in, find out what specialisms they offer and research them. Look at job types in the industry, pay types, companies who would require those services and the potential competitors. - This will really help during the interview.

Then thoroughly research Hays and what we do. It would reflect badly with any company if when you got to interview you did not know anything about them or what they do.

Have a look on www.hays.co.uk, there is lots of information about being a recruitment consultant and you can practice matching candidates to roles which will help when you get to the interview role plays.

ROLE PLAYS! Hays loves a good role play, so be prepared to be a recruitment consultant.

Hays only wants to hire the best so the interview process has several stages, in my experience stages 2,3 and 4 all involved role plays. Be confident and don't be afraid to ask questions when given the opportunity, if you don't ask you don't know, and if you don't know.....

Enjoy it, the interview process the whole way through is fun, you meet new people and learn lots about yourself and the company whether or not you are successful.

Interview Advice:

Make it clear that you want a career. You are passionate and ambitious. Hays only employs team players, people that are willing to work hard on their own but equally want to help their colleagues anyway they can. With Hays you do an assessment day with other people so it is important you know how to assert yourself without being over bearing.

Application Advice:

I would advise applicants to research the recruitment industry well prior to attending interviews, as it is quite a niche industry where everything isn't as easy as it seems. I would advise doing a lot of research on Hays as a business and comparing them with other agencies, as you will soon find that Hays are massively ahead of all other recruitment companies for various reasons.

Interview Advice:

At interview, my main piece of advice would be to come across confident and show that you are keen on the role and company. You really need to show that Hays are the company you work for.

Interview Advice:

Make sure you have done your research on the company as they may ask questions around this. Be confident in your interview but don't oversell yourself as it's better to be honest about your strengths and weaknesses.

Senior Recruitment Consultant, Manchester at Hays

Application Advice:

The main piece of advice I would give to candidates who are applying for roles within Hays is to be Inquisitive throughout the interview process.

What I mean by this is to ask relevant questions, essentially be nosey to find out more information.

This is a skill that all the best recruitment consultants have, and from now being a part of the Hays team, I know this is also a skill that is particularly looked for within the interview process.

However, make sure they are relevant questions and business related, as asking stupid questions for the sake of it will not have the desired effect.

Interview Advice:

Dress to impress.

Managers and directors are always involved in the interview process with Hays and they want to find someone who they could take out on a meeting with a client that afternoon and not be shown up.

Remember, first impressions count.

Application Advice:

Don't quit your always striving for more it can be tough when you have a bad run but the longer you do this role the better you wil become and with the market turning the rewards will be there for you to take. Be determined and passionate about what you do but try to take a step back once in a while to gain perspective and assess your desk as it can be easy to get into bad habits or miss things.

Interview Advice:

Be yourself and prepare. Always come in knowing what recruitment is, this can be difficult but you can do the online test and ask questions.

Ask questions and interact with the other candidates in the assessment centre also be confident no matter how nervous try to relax they want you to succeed.

The final interview is meant to be tough if you leave thinking you've got the job chances are you have not. Keep a level head and think about your responses.

Application Advice:

Make sure you are as focused and dedicated to pursuing a career within recruitment before applying rather than using it as a stepping stone to another path. Without this determination to suceed it can be very difficult to motivate you through the difficulties you may face in your first few months.

Interview Advice:

You need to quick thinking in your interview, and ensure you try and have an answer for every scenario. For example, disgruntled clients - and how you can turn every obstacle into an opportunity for yourself. This is something which will be tested in the interview process.

Application Advice:

Look beyond what the job entails on face value. When I interviewed for the role I was very naive to what I thought recruitment was and didn't appreciate the successful career you can make out of it. When applying make sure you are resilient because too many graduates give up too easily in Sales.

Interview Advice:

Back up every answer with an example.
Keep good eye contact especially when applying for a sales role as relationship building is key to success.
Remember as much as the company is interviewing you, you are also trying to find out what makes this company better than their competitors so ask questions to the interviewer as well. e.g. What makes this company a better workplace compared to other recruitment agencies?

Business Manager, Recruitment at Hays

Application Advice:

Successful applicants will always be those who can demonstrate some commercial nouse. We're sales people and the ability to demonstrate a strong commercial awareness and a passion for your own career is key.
Sports and activities are always a big selling point in your CV - ultimately this is an industry that is filled with competitive people and it takes a competitive spirit to succeed, coupled with a strong team ethic.

Interview Advice:

Be confident, be prepared and be well presented.
People underestimate the value in smiling and good body language but these are key to your success in an interview for a recruitment position. Smiling implies confidence, success and automatically puts your interviewer at ease. Remember, first impressions take 8 seconds to make and a life time to change so make yours count.
If you want to be successful in an interview you should be prepared to demonstrate a keen understanding of Hays' core values and a drive to succeed.
Candidates who do well in our assessment centres show the ability to think quickly under pressure, strong sales skills but most importantly are well liked by their interviewers.
Being smartly dressed almost goes without saying for any interview but really do think about how you are presented. As a recruiter you need to be better dressed than your best dressed clients and candidates. If a candidate arrives to interview for me dressed casually or in scruffy clothing they have nearly lost the battle from the onset. Simple business attire is sufficient and there is plenty of advice out there on the web, so don't get caught out on a controllable part of your interview.

Application Advice:

Do not take this role lightly - this role has a lot of expectations and it is a massive learning experience. The application process is intensive but if you are passionate about the role then perservere. Coming out of University it is a bit of an undertaking for a first job but if you are willing to throw yourself into the role and push yourself out of your comfort zone, you will reap the rewards. At every opportunity ask as many questions about the company, role and the office you will potentially work at (all offices across the UK vary significantly in size which makes such a difference to the working environment).

Interview Advice:

Read up as much as you can about Hays - facts, figures and working ethos.
Try and get to grips with the world of recruitment and what working in it involves.
Think about how your previous experiences will help you to work with people, get to the bottom of information and get people to buy into you as a professional.
