-: Yeah, best way to prepare first I think
is to understand the distinction between
working for an organization,
I am the recruitment for my organization,
and being at a staffing agency.
They're really two different things
and deciding what works better for you
is really important.
I had interned at a staffing agency
and I really liked that experience,
but I wanted to be working with one place everyday
as well as having some type of internship
or volunteer experience,
having that internship was really valuable
for me going into interviews
being able to explain, "This is what I've already done
"that relates to this specific position."
One class that I loved was psychology of the workplace.
As a psych major, I had to take so many psych courses
and I really enjoyed that one
because it gave me the business side of psychology
being at work.
How do teams work out well,
what type of interviewing techniques
are most beneficial for different level positions.
It was really valuable to what I do today.
I think being very motivated is really important
in recruitment and HR, your metrics are based on
how many hires you do and how long those hires stay.
They're really up front metrics.
Being very motivated every day to make sure
that you're hiring the best people representing your brand
in a great way I think are both really important.
