A great session sharing practical interview tips and insights from both sides of the interview table! 👏

Ngan Nguyen, our Principal Consultant recently delivered an interview skills workshop for our charity partner, Dress for Success Wellington, helping job seekers build confidence and feel better prepared for their next career move.

It was fantastic to see such a great turnout, with job seekers, career coaches and employers coming together for an engaging session full of thoughtful questions, discussion and audience participation. We hope everyone left with some useful tips and practical takeaways to put into action.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the session such a success. We look forward to supporting again next year!

Introducing Leadership and Career Coaching at McLaren Recruitment!

Our conversations with clients and candidates have always gone well beyond recruitment. We talk about careers, workplace challenges, developing people and making important career decisions.

So, we're pleased to be extending the support we offer with the introduction of Leadership and Career Coaching.

Working with experienced Career Coach Leanne Leanne McLean, we're now offering personalised, confidential one-to-one coaching for people investing in their own career development, or whose employers want to support their growth.

For individuals, coaching can help with career direction, navigating change, building confidence, preparing for interviews or working out what comes next.

For organisations, it's another way to invest in your people. Whether that's supporting someone stepping into leadership, developing future talent, retaining a valued employee or helping someone navigate a challenging period at work.

We offer individual coaching sessions, structured three- and five-session programmes, and tailored support depending on what's needed.

It's a natural extension of what we've always done at McLaren: supporting people throughout their careers, not just when they're looking for their next role.

Interested in finding out more?

Visit our website or get in touch with our team. We'd love to hear from you.
