Success is subjective and differs from person to person. It is important for success to align with an individual's beliefs and values. Success can be measured through tangible achievements, viewed as a journey, or seen as a mindset. In addition, the criteria for success may be tied to personal, societal, spiritual, educational, or career objectives.

Join us to celebrate the various achievements of the women at LJMU!

Light refreshments and snacks will be available, but we kindly encourage you to bring your own lunch

Recruitment and Selection with Hireserve

This session is part of the LJMU LEAD Programme – Leadership Enhancement and Development but is for all staff who are to take part in any recruitment and selection of staff at LJMU.

We recognise that our employees are our greatest asset and ensuring that our recruiting managers follow the university's recruitment and selection policy is essential in attracting and retaining the right staff. Getting it wrong can have a lasting impact on the business and the individual leading to problems with staff morale and absence.

This session is aimed at taking recruiters through the recruitment and selection process including:

1. How to use the hiring manager self-service portal (Hireserve) from advertising through to offer

2. Producing a job description and person specification

3. Advertising the position

4. Carrying out a fair selection process at both shortlist and interview, gathering accurate information, interpreting information, and making decisions

5. Equal opportunities, dealing with subjectivity, diversity and good practice

6. Interviewing skills including preparing questions, questioning techniques and structuring the interview

Personal Tutoring: Boundary-setting and signposting

Personal Tutoring has a significant role to play in guiding students’ academic achievement and engagement with opportunities for further development and support, where needed. In undertaking that role, it is likely that Personal Tutors will become aware of difficulties students are encountering which are impacting on their studies – these may be academic-related or related to typical life issues. An effective and trusting relationship will be based on a shared understanding of the role and its boundaries.

This session will cover how to establish appropriate boundaries and manage students’ expectations. It will also cover how and when to signpost students to other services within LJMU for more specialist guidance.

Led by staff from Organisational Development and Student Advice and Wellbeing this session will be delivered online.
