NAS TALENT TALK

In part one of our interview, we discussed career site goals with Leigh McCluskey, Senior Vice President of Talent Acquisition for Advisor Group. In part two, Leigh takes us through Phase 2 of their career site implementation, which involved content for University, Diversity & Inclusion and Community Service sections, as well as photo shoots, analytics and future goals for the site.

As part of Phase 2, we added a University section. Tell us about those efforts.

We're still a relatively new company, but we are committed to evolving and developing our student intern and recent graduate entry-level programs. We worked internally to build a strong, reputable internship program within the industry. Our goal is to ensure that they’re not getting task-focused assignments, but that they are doing really impactful, value-adding work.

On the site, we wanted to tell our story in a way that candidates will appreciate how we're different. We want them to have a great experience and, consequently, be our brand ambassadors with a great story to tell. We're also expanding our presence on key campuses, partnering with universities in each of our five hubs, where we will work with a partner to conduct women's leadership events with students and faculty members.
