I was born and raised in the UK, in London, Camden, and before joining Hays and the world of recruitment, I had worked across various different industries such as, Hospitality, Healthcare and Real Estate. Recruitment attracted me as a career due to the fast-paced, customer-facing, sales environment it entails. When starting my search for a job in this field, I knew I wanted to work for a large organisation that would be able to provide long-term career progression and after speaking with the amazing HR team at Hays, it was clear that there were endless training and development opportunities on offer. I was sold on Hays almost immediately, the care and dedication they have for their employees was so visible from the get go and something I hugely value. After interviews and meetings with various members of the UAE team, I was rapidly sent a job offer which I was delighted to accept.

Before my first day at Hays, I was sent a clear agenda for my first three days with the business. On day one, I was greeted with lovely smiles and high energy from everyone I interacted with. I was provided with in-depth training from the different departments in the office and had personal one-to-ones with some of the many successful consultants who shared with me real-time advice and knowledge. Since this first week, I have continued to develop my knowledge and training through the ‘New Consultant Training’ (NCT) programme and the amazing workshops held by the senior management team. 

For me, it’s the people and culture that make Hays so unique. Everyone has a strong work ethic and is willing to support you on your journey to success, no matter whether you’re an Associate Recruitment Consultants or a more senior Business Manager.

Besides the amazing Friday morning continental breakfast that is provided by the office, I just love my job and working within such a great team. I feel supported and that I have all the guidance I need to build a successful career.
