Conversations with recruiter, Jamie

Posting date: 30/07/24

In the latest edition of our series “Conversations with TA,” we connected with Jamie, an extraordinary colleague and Technician Recruiter for the Northeast Market. Known for impacting the recruiting world, we asked Jamie a few questions to learn more about what inspired her to become a recruiter, her perspective on our company’s culture, and her advice for candidates applying to technician roles.

Why Talent Acquistion? What inspired you to pursue a recruiting role at Rentokil Terminix?

I was inspired by the dynamic nature of recruiting. I enjoy problem-solving and connecting people with opportunities to help meet their professional goals. Every day brings new challenges and the chance to help build great teams within the company.

With your experience, how would you best describe the company’s culture? How does it help you recruit new candidates?

I would describe Rentokil Terminix's culture as collaborative and welcoming. Here, I feel encouraged to share my ideas, participate in projects, and engage in Colleague Resource Groups to step outside of my professional comfort zone and explore new possibilities.

This type of work environment makes it easy to inspire new candidates to join the team. Everyone deserves the chance to work in a place where they feel valued, can thrive, and make meaningful contributions to their team and the company as a whole.

Do you have any advice for individuals looking to apply for the roles you're recruiting for?

When applying to technician roles, I'd advise highlighting any relevant experience you may have, even if it’s not directly in pest control. Skills from customer service, problem-solving, or technical work can be extremely valuable. This experience, in addition to simply having the willingness to learn and develop your skills, can strengthen your chances of landing a position.
