30、that everyones following the right procedures. Im also involved in the interviewing and selection of management staff. Thats for all the stores. M: You have another role in recruitment, dont you? With the Association of Graduate Recruiters? F: Yes, I chair the executive committee. M: Can you tell us

31、 a bit more about the Association? F: Yes, at the moment, the AGR consists of a group of major employers of graduates, but more and more graduates are being recruited by small and medium-sized companies, so I expect the membership of the Association will change along with that. We have quite a range

32、 of activities, we have information service through which we give advice to any graduate employer and, uh, we also supply statistics to the education sector. For the future, were hoping to develop as training body, particularly working with, uh, new graduate recruiters. So, in general, you could say

36、allow for collaboration. So it seems to me that more team work is required when it comes to studying. M: What kind of skills would you say employers are looking for?

37、sults, but this isnt always what employers are looking for. Certainly in the service sector, employers want people who can work as part of a team.

38、d its very easy to train people up. M: And how does a company decide whether a graduate has the skills hes looking for? For example: what is the selection procedure at Carters? F: Well, the first stage consists of individual interviews. These are followed by group exercises. There are three exercise

39、s and they last about 24 hours. I suppose ideally they should be longer. But there are some practical constraints. Anyway the process itself gives people the opportunity to display certain skills, like the ability to work in a team or the ability to plan and organize. M: Do these skills develop afte

40、r selection? F: We can teach graduate employees certain things, such as leadership techniques, and we also encourage certain things with rewards, initiative for example. But the basis of our approach is career development for all graduates, not just the real high fliers. We actually think the companies benefit more from improving the performance of the typical graduates, not just a select few. M: Kate Orebi, Thanks for joining us.
