Rullion Engineering Personnel have over 30 years experience working in engineering recruitment. In that time we have placed thousands of engineering professionals in permanent jobs with our customers. Those individuals have gone on to establish excellent careers within said customers which has been to the benefit of both parties.
Seeking employment, deciding to leave your current employment, looking for a new job, applying for different positions, attending interviews - and ultimately resigning from your present job - these are major landmarks in your career path. We truly appreciate the challenges and changes such circumstances represent, and we're on hand every step of the way to ensure everything goes as smoothly and easily as possible. In fact we aim to make the entire process as enjoyable and simple as possible for you - so here are a few hints to help you successfully make that vital career move!
Give thought to preparing your CV
Think of your CV as a sales document - with you as the subject matter. It's there to help you secure that all-important job interview (and job offer!), so make it work well for you - which means keeping it simple and straightforward. And try to use bullet points or short statements about your skills and experience, so that potential employers can quickly assess your capabilities and make a rapid decision to meet you face-to-face. Make sure your CV is relevant, tailored and details all of your achievements.
Research
How often before have you heard an interviewer ask: "What do you know about us?" Chances are that you'll be asked that same question in future job interviews, so if you've done your homework about the company, you're sure to impress them. Their website is the best place to start - though you could also call them and ask for a copy of their latest Annual Report and any promotional literature they may have.
Preparing meaningful questions
Don't be tempted to talk about holidays, hours of work and benefits in your first interview - these are all matters that should only be discussed when the job's definitely yours. It's far better to ask questions like: "What plans for growth does the company have?", "What are the main reasons your customers buy from you?", “Who do you consider to be your main competitors and why?” and "Why do you enjoy working here?"
First and foremost be prepared, be confident and sell yourself both with your CV and at interview.
