Innovative, Collaborative, Customer-focused – Joyce’s Why Story

In just two and half months, I'll be celebrating my 4th-year anniversary with Qualtrics. Joining in September 2019 as a Senior Talent Acquisition Partner based in Singapore, I was part of a small team of 20 employees working in a service office. Fortunately, I was among the new hires who had the chance to visit the Sydney office for onboarding and attend a Talent Acquisition all-hands meeting at our Provo headquarters before the pandemic struck. Despite the challenges that followed, Qualtrics demonstrated resilience by swiftly transitioning to remote work. Reflecting on my journey so far, I'm grateful for the growth, opportunities, and inspiring collaboration I've experienced. I eagerly anticipate celebrating this milestone and the future with Qualtrics.

My day as a senior recruiter at Qualtrics starts off with a delicious cup of coffee to rev up my energy for the exciting adventures ahead. I jump right into reviewing emails and messages, eagerly keeping up with candidate applications and interview requests. Throughout the day, I team up with my awesome colleagues, unleashing our superpowers to find and connect with potential candidates. We conduct interviews, rock talent branding, and make sure we're on top of our game. 

And guess what? Qualtrics fuels our productivity and camaraderie with healthy lunches that bring us all together for a midday break of fun and laughter. In the afternoon, it's all about diving headfirst into meetings with candidates, hiring managers, and my fellow team members from different departments. We soak up important insights and information, using them to navigate the unique needs of our various business units. 

Of course, another cup of coffee is always in order to keep the good vibes flowing! So you see, my day as a senior recruiter at Qualtrics is not just a regular day at the office—it's a thrilling and fulfilling journey where we combine our powers to attract top talent and make a meaningful impact. And we do it all with a big smile and a sprinkle of fun!

What is your favorite part of your role?

One of my favourite parts of being a recruiter is the opportunity to connect with talented individuals and help them find their ideal career opportunities. Engaging with candidates, understanding their experiences, and guiding them through the hiring process is incredibly rewarding. The ability to contribute to the growth and success of both candidates and the organization is a favourite aspect that I often cherish.
