Everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and valued — not just once they’re in the role, but throughout the hiring journey. Creating a truly inclusive workplace starts at the first touchpoint — the candidate experience matters more than ever. Diversity doesn’t end at hiring — it’s about building cultures where people from all backgrounds can thrive. Representation opens doors, but inclusion keeps people in the room. Treat every candidate like a future colleague — because they might just be. The best talent won’t always follow a traditional path — be ready to see potential, not just paper. Hiring isn’t just about filling roles — it’s about shaping culture.

At my previous company, I had the privilege of helping create an LGBTQIA+ Employee Resource Group (ERG) from the ground up. This initiative was designed to give employees a voice, fostering a more inclusive workplace where diverse perspectives could be shared and celebrated. By driving this ERG, I helped create a platform for advocacy, support, and connection, ensuring that LGBTQIA+ employees had a dedicated space to be heard and empowered within the business.

Everyone is supportive, so you will never be alone. Develop positive working relationships with your colleagues and the management team. Teamwork improves productivity and fosters a positive work atmosphere. Being an Operator Technician necessitates a talent for comprehending complicated systems and operations. Instead of being intimidated by the moment's intricacy, embrace the learning curve. Every problem is an opportunity to learn and grow. Take ownership and satisfaction in keeping it efficient. A well-managed space demonstrates your dedication to excellence.

Don't be afraid to reach out to people and ask silly questions or want to know more about their role etc. People are always willing to help and therefore don't be shy to ask for it. Having a strong network will not only help in terms of understanding the wider business and can provide you with people to rely on when you need support; but it will also open up new opportunities that may not have been possible. Also be clear on what kind of roles you enjoy (make take time to figure out) - but understand what gets you out of bed in the morning and then look for roles that have these aspects as part of them. And definitely don't expect to have a lot of the requirements on job descriptions - do not let this put you off applying. After all, if you had all the list, arguably you shouldn't be applying! The point is to show your transferable skills to the role and willingness to learn, and you should then have opportunities in the role to develop particular skills.
