Katrina Alloway

Hello, I am Katrina

I am a Human Resources manager with a specialization in the psychology of selection processes and candidate assessment. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience working in the field of recruitment and as a HR manager in three different companies.

My passion for understanding human behavior and the dynamics of the hiring process led me to pursue a deep knowledge of psychology, specifically in relation to candidate evaluation and selection. I believe that a successful recruitment process goes beyond simply matching skills and qualifications; it requires a comprehensive understanding of the individual's personality, motivations, and cultural fit within the organization.

In my previous roles, I have had the opportunity to work with various organizations and industries, each presenting unique challenges and opportunities. Through this diverse experience, I have honed my skills in designing and implementing effective recruitment strategies, conducting behavioral interviews, and assessing candidates using psychometric assessments. I have also collaborated closely with hiring managers to define job requirements and establish clear evaluation criteria for each role.

As a HR manager, I have always strived to create a positive and engaging candidate experience. I understand that the selection process can be nerve-wracking for applicants, and I make it a priority to ensure they feel valued and supported throughout the entire process. By establishing open lines of communication and providing timely feedback, I aim to build trust and rapport with candidates, even if they are not ultimately selected for a position.

Additionally, I have successfully implemented talent acquisition strategies that promote diversity and inclusion within the workforce. Recognizing the value of a diverse team, I have actively sought out innovative sourcing methods and collaborated with diversity networks to attract candidates from underrepresented groups.

In summary, my experience as a HR manager specializing in the psychology of selection processes has equipped me with a deep understanding of candidate assessment and the importance of creating a positive candidate experience. I am dedicated to leveraging this knowledge and expertise to support organizations in making informed hiring decisions and building high-performing teams.
