The Organisation

 

As Northern Ireland’s civic university, Ulster University is grounded in the heart of the community and strives to make a lasting contribution to society as a whole. Renowned for its world-class teaching, Ulster aims to transform lives, stretch minds and develop the skills required by a growing economy.

The Challenge

 

We met with Kate Burns, Resourcing Manager at Ulster University, to find out how Webrecruit’s advertising solutions have supported Ulster University in their hiring efforts.

“I transitioned to the resourcing team from another internal team within Ulster University and it was almost a baptism of fire for me. Fortunately, Webrecruit’s expertise made that transition a little easier. From our initial discussions, it was evident that Webrecruit valued building a personal connection with us, helping to facilitate the success of our recruitment efforts.

 

Working with Webrecruit has been a delightful experience, as they always go above and beyond to meet our needs. Their flexibility and eagerness to cater to our requirements have left a lasting impression on me. For instance, we recently collaborated with their team to fine-tune the recruitment data we received from them, allowing us to review our overall return on investment and optimise our spending.”

The Solution

 

What is the most recent recruitment challenge you have faced that Webrecruit has been able to help with?

“As with many Universities, we normally approach recruitment in a very traditional manner. I was keen on moving away from a conventional recruitment approach, and Webrecruit helped us to shift from the older methods to using social media and advising on job-specific alternative platforms.

 

Ulster University now has a school of medicine, and we’ve been seeking candidates with specialised skills to meet our requirements. With the guidance of the Webrecruit team, we’ve been able to execute our recruitment campaign in an unfamiliar industry. Their expertise proved invaluable, as they advised us on the best recruiting methods in a new sector.”
