1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

As a talent Acquisition Specialist my role involves managing candidates from point of application to point of hire. My day to day involves mainly interviewing, but also managing my talent pipeline and all the admin involved in processing a candidate. My apprenticeship is focused on data management, which is a crucial part of my everyday role managing candidates.

2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

I have learned how to utilize Excel more effectively. I have already learned how to format spreadsheets, write formulas and use shortcuts to manage the data more efficiently. I have also learned more commercial awareness around the importance of data to the business and this has helped me in my everyday role.
