First of all, tell us what position you hold at Everis and what your daily duties involve.
At Everis, I am rounding off the training I have received on the Master with an internship in the Human Resources Department, in the Employer Branding team. Although I only started recently, my duties main involved implementing the strategies set, analysing quantitative and qualitative data on the actions taken, organizing department events and creating content for the various social media.
Why interested you about the opportunity and what were the stages of the selection process?
The opportunity was interesting because it gave me the chance to join a large company that offered flexibility in terms of the timetable, which I really value. In addition, they explained the duties of the position in great detail and they were really related to what I was studying.
In my case, the selection process involved two interviews, one to get an idea of my personality and aspirations, and the second focusing more on my competences.
How did you feel when they told you that you had been selected? Did you expect it?
I really wasn't sure that they were going to select me because, at the end of the day, it is the Human Resources Department, although it is also true that this team works very closely with Marketing. When I got the news, I felt really glad and lucky to receive the opportunity that I am now experiencing.
Now with your perspective from the inside, what aspects of the company would you highlight?
Above all, I would emphasize the great working atmosphere. The teams are made of people who embody the values that characterize the company: demanding generosity, responsible freedom, creative energy, consistency between what they say and do, and transparency.
