Talent Aquisition Manager with Nicolas Pretorius, High Liner Foods | HR Mini-series

In episode one of our HR-Miniseries we are talking about what hiring managers actually look for, how to approach resumes and interviews, and realistic ways that students can build experience and momentum as they start their careers.

Nicolas Pretorius is Talent Acquisition Manager at Highliner Foods, one of North America's leading processors of frozen, added-value seafood.

In this conversation, you'll learn:

What hiring managers actually look for on an entry-level resume Why soft skills often separate candidates more than technical ones How to use the skill bucket resume format with limited experience What "culture fit" really means and better questions to ask instead You might think getting hired is about having the right degree or the right experience.

As Nicolas will show you today, it's really about how you tell your story and the soft skills that most candidates overlook.

If you're a student or new grad figuring out your next move, this one is worth your time.
