Our recruitment process
We're looking for people who share our values
In the Adults and Integrated Care team at South Tyneside Council, we're using Values Based Recruitment (VBR).
We want to attract and select employees whose personal values align with the values of the Council.
We're developing our recruitment processes to make sure that we don't just recruit people for their skills and competence, but also look at how their own values align with our values.
Evidence suggests that values-based recruitment is good recruitment practice and employees with the right values are more likely to:
- Work efficiently in teams
- Experience greater job satisfaction
