Executive Summary

Use candidate manager to flag when they get an application

Must know rules of betting to apply

Use two types of interviews phone and face to

face

In phone interview they check manner and communication skills

In face to face they ask questions from interview booklet

They ask same questions from phone interview to see if answers match up

They hire every 6 to 8 weeks

They promote internally to boost morale , keep turnover down and show career advancement in company

Hire externally senior position to add a freshness to the business

Analyses that if people externally get the job instead of internally it creates tension

Are able to offer training to people internally

Have lots of applicants and interview on regular basis

In current climate they can be more selective

We recommend they retain more unsuccessful candidate pros

Also more internal people should be promoted to more senior roles
