My Role In O2
My name is Danielle. I’ve worked here for 4 years now. I started in Network Services taking calls from customers who were having issues with the network, coverage etc. From there I went into Business Customer Services and I’m now in recruitment.
I mainly look after the Preston Brook and Bury side of things within the Recruitment Team, which is based in Leeds. My role as a Senior Recruitment Assistant is varied but generally means I look after applicants through to the stage of employment so it involves screening through online applications, telephone interviewing, interviewing face to face, then finally gathering all the required information such as reference details etc and offering positions to candidates. I process the offers and these are passed through for the contracts to be generated and sent.
I come across all kinds of people from all backgrounds and like to see people going through the process, getting settled into their roles and also when they progress into other areas.
I enjoy my job. I think O2 is a good company to work for with great opportunities to progress and really have a career. There are numerous perks and benefits that you can choose from, my favourite being the O2 in London where you can get tickets before everyone else or even win them through competitions. O2 even took all their employees there last June and we got to see Kaiser Chiefs, Basement Jaxx and the lovely Tom Jones!
