Ronda Barnes is an HR professional with over 10 years of experience in career development and strategic staffing. She has a masterâ€™s degree in Human Resource Development and a graduate certificate in Online Learning and Teaching.

Staffing professionals have many tasks to juggle and tight deadlines to meet. Your days will often consist of client calls, conducting interviews, following up on candidates, and other administrative tasks. To excel in your position, you'll also need to find time for professional development.

Explain how you will effectively manage your time at Aerotek. The interviewer will want to know if you understand the importance of time management and how well you manage your time to meet job and career goals.

Ronda Barnes

"Because of the nature of staffing and recruiting, I understand that prioritizing tasks and maximizing available time is a must. To do this effectively, I like to use a calendar or scheduling tool to plan my daily tasks. This helps ensure I am attentive to the needs of my clients and candidates. I use any downtime for professional development or stay current on the latest trends and developments in recruitment. Of course, there are days when things don't go as planned or an urgent matter might need to be resolved right away, so I resolve the urgent issue and immediately get back on track with other pending tasks."
