I spent two weeks working with the HR department at Avon Cosmetics for some experience in understanding how their department works focusing particularly on recruitment as it is an area of work I am very much interested in. I helped advertise vacancies where there were Area Sales Managers needed. I became accustomed to searching through the data base and total jobs looking for ideal candidates.

I helped advertise vacancies where there were Area Sales Managers needed. I became accustomed to searching through the data base and total jobs looking for ideal candidates. I spent time logging CV's and saving them to be looked at for future positions.I also gained experience in ringing possible candidates to make sure that they would attend their assessment centres, as well as helping to organise where and when they would be taking place. I booked hotel meeting rooms and negotiated price deals to fit within the budgets.I also helped look into the probation process and helped send emails to those who had been successful, looking at a different side to HR other than recruitmentI also attended a meeting involving everyone who worked at Avon gaining a great insight into the company as a whole Show more Show less
