Landing your next professional role: advanced insights from Ola Younis
Manage episode 501802574 series 2795104
Ola Younis is a data scientist who recently moved from work in the conveyancing sector to working for ACCA, the global body for professional accountants.
In this interview, Ola reflects explicitly on the learning points that make for success in negotiating the application and selection processes in order to win a much-desired professional role.
Her sophisticated insights take us far beyond the standard types of advice for candidates. In particular, Ola explains how to:
- develop an understanding and appreciation of the employer's needs and preferences - and how that can help a candidate to communicate effectively
- work in partnership with an agency - and how the agency can add value
- and, intriguingly, how to think of oneself during the process "as a cube".
