Career jump: Teamlead in only one year

What exactly has your start and career at Rödl been like so far?

After around 4 years in recruitment, I became part of the recruitment team at Rödl in June 2022. Initially, I worked as a Talent Acquisition Specialist and was responsible for the entire recruitment process in the areas of Management and IT consulting as well as our internal IT, from job advertisement to recruitment. From the very beginning, I enjoyed using the knowledge I had acquired in recruiting and working with the newly formed team to identify the best talents for Rödl.

I am therefore particularly pleased that in my position as teamlead Recruiting I have the opportunity to focus even more intensively on this topic. This role allows me to focus more on the strategic aspects of recruiting and I look forward to continuously developing my skills and knowledge – because the market is constantly changing.

A good work-life balance is particularly important to many people. What is your work-life balance like?

We definitely have a good work-life balance in our team. Of course, I also have phases when things are a little more stressful, but generally it balances out well. I prefer it when I look at the clock at 6 pm and realise how quickly the day has gone by instead of just killing time. Having fun at work is probably the secret recipe here. I’m also flexible when it comes to organising my week. Of course, there are ‘core working hours’, but these can be managed very well thanks to the possibility of mobile working, among other things. As a result, I don’t miss out on spending time with family and friends.

You are always looking to strengthen your team. What qualities should potential candidates have?

That’s a very good point! In fact, we are currently looking for Talent Acquisition Specialists to further strengthen and expand our team. An open and communicative nature that enables you to interact effectively with people at different hierarchical levels is extremely helpful for the job. A structured way of working, organisational skills and some experience in recruiting are definitely an advantage. The ability to work well in a team and pursue common goals is also important to us. If you like the idea that no day is like the other, you could be in good hands with us – because that’s what makes this job so special in my opinion.

Thank you, Lisa, for your inspiring impressions. We wish you continued success as teamlead Recruiting.
