Lodestone Recruitment Ltd

Recruitment Ltd made a valiant effort this afternoon for The Worlds Biggest Music quiz for Cash for Kids. 28/45 not too bad for a team with fat fingers!

Recruitment Ltd wishes all of our clients and contacts a blessed Easter!

Job interviews are naturally daunting, especially when you're up against competition. From my years in recruitment, talent and aptitude will always be high on the list, particularly with the lack of skilled Engineers. However, most clients would much rather have a good attitude and someone that they can work with. Here's how you can stand out:

- ✅ Research the Company: Go on their website (it's amazing the number of candidates who don't do this), know their values, culture, and the requirements of the job (ask your recruiter for a job description).
- ✅ Preparation for interview: What do I need to bring? Safety boots, Hi-Viz, Welding screen
- ✅ Get there early!
- ✅ Show Enthusiasm: Ask questions about the work that they are do or current projects that they are working on. Make it clear that this is the role that you want in the interview.
- ✅ Know Your Strengths: Understand what you bring to the table. Have clear examples of how you've used these skills in real-world scenarios.
- ✅ Highlight Soft Skills: One sweetener which has always gone down well is demonstrating your work. The best candidates have a portfolio of their work to show what they can do.

Small details and matter and these are the sort of incremental gains which secure a job. Prepare well and showcase how and why your are different.
