Well,
what usually happens is that an employer will advertise a vacancy or new post —
sometimes both inside and outside the company. Then, after they have received
all the applications, they shortlist the candidates, choosing those who appear
to meet their criteria. Next, they will assemble an interview panel and call
the candidates to an interview Some employers choose to check references at
this stage to avoid delays later, while others wait until after the interview
when they have chosen one of the candidates. Provided the panel are happy, the
employer will make a job offer and the successful candidate starts work. Often
they attend induction sessions or are given a mentor who helps to train new
staff.

Ну, что обычно происходит, то, что работодатель будет
рекламировать вакансию или новую должность — иногда и внутри и снаружи
компании. Затем после того, как они получили все заявления, они включают в
окончательный список кандидатов, выбирая тех, кто, кажется, соответствует их критериям.
Затем, они соберут группу интервью и назовут кандидатов к интервью. Некоторые
работодатели принимают решение проверить ссылки на данном этапе, чтобы избежать
задержек позже, в то время как другие ждут до окончания интервью, когда они
выбрали одного из кандидатов.При условии, что группа довольна, работодатель
сделает предложение о работе и кандидат начинает работу. Часто они посещают
индукционные сессий или дают наставника, который помогает обучать новых
сотрудников.
