Developing a rewarding career is a key focus for Robert Half. We provide extensive training and professional development programs, offer clear career paths as well as global career opportunities.

0:00 [Music] 0:07 We have a very structured career path for every individual across the company in Singapore, where they have clear indications on what do they need to do to get to the next level. I myself had five promotions over the past 10 years, and I’m not an isolated case. 0:19 We do emphasize a lot on career development, personal development, as well as leadership development. 0:26 Personalities that I think would suit the role of a consultant here in Robert Half would, of course, be competition—healthy ones—so that one is never complacent and would strive to do better than their current selves. The second one is an openness to learn, because of how things move at the pace they do. One cannot be constant where they are and must be adaptable and dynamic. 0:45 The third one definitely is to be able to collaborate as a team player because no man is an island. So definitely here, where we share a lot of our resources, our time, helping each other, and the team is important so that everyone succeeds. 0:56 I joined Robert Half nine years ago, and I have had very good career progression since then. I got promoted every two to three years due to my consistent performance. The ideal person who's working as a recruiting consultant at Robert Half, the first who can deliver high performance and second who has a strong drive toward their personal achievement, career progression, or monetary rewards. 1:16 And the last, who approaches to teamwork well. We are very aggressive outside in the market but very supportive to each other within the team or across the team. The best part about Robert Half's leadership training is that you get to interact with leaders from other countries and learn best practices. We also have very good in- house trainers who are very credible because they have been successful Robert Half consultants prior. And of course, it doesn't hurt that we get to travel to countries such as Sydney, Hong Kong, and Japan. 1:43 We are looking for people who are driven—naturally driven— that want to make a difference, that want to build a career in recruitment, build dream lives, dream careers for our candidates, and help our clients grow their business by providing them with the best solution and the best candidates in the market.
