On the 8th of March, Bilkent News conducted short interviews with a few of the companies
participating in the career fair. We asked what characteristics and traits they seek in
their employees.
Aslı Tunç (Deloitte/HR): It is not necessary to earn a master's but to
have one is a plus. English is a must; also French and German are preferable. We prefer
FEASS, IE, CS or any engineering department and MBA graduates.
Ülfet Banu Baykent (Unilever/HR): A master’s is not a must for us. We
have a training program for newcomers according to his/her department. English fluency is
necessary. Usually, we accept applications from all departments.
Fuat Kır (Club Med/HR): We search for graduates with master's degrees for the
management positions. English and French are required languages for us. We don't eliminate
applications according to the departments applicants graduated from.
Bahar Ulusal, Aslı Sözer (Johnson&Johnson Medical/HR): A master's
is not a must but English is. We also prefer European languages. Applicants are expected
to be focused on customer service and results. Graduates from all departments are welcome.
Filiz Tural (Vodafone/HR): We want applicants to be university graduates
and a master's is preferable. A second foreign language is also preferable but English is
very important. We want applicants to be suited to the position.
Asu Kösebalaban (Aselsan/HR): A master's is not a must for us. We
usually hire engineering, management and FEASS graduates. English is a must but any other
language is an advantage.
Zekiye Şafak Dinçer (Schneider/HR): A master's is not a must for us but
it is a plus. Excluding English, we also search for French and Spanish as a second foreign
language. We hire mostly engineers.
Mısra Erciyes (P&G/HR): A master's is not a determining criterion;
we usually evaluate the applicants by an interview. English is a must language for us but
no other language is necessary. We don't have a department preference; all are welcome.
