Recruitment Process
The MGA’s most important asset is its people. Through our recruitment process, we aim to recruit the Authority’s future leaders, while ensuring that we strengthen the high-performance culture that enables the Authority to achieve its strategic objectives.
Step 01
First Interview
During the first interview, we ensure that the candidate possesses the technical and soft-skill requirements set out for the role we are recruiting for. It is also an opportunity for the candidate to clarify whether the MGA is the right place for them to flourish in. Should the candidate be successful, they proceed to the next phase – the Task stage.
Step 02
Task
Candidates who succeed in the first phase of recruitment are asked to work on a task that provides them with a very clear understanding as to what they should expect to be working on if selected for the position in question. If successful, candidates proceed to the second interview.
Step 03
Second Interview
In the second interview, candidates are given the opportunity to present their task submissions. In this phase, the interviewers will further build on the observations generated during the first interview to ensure that a well-formed opinion is formulated prior to a final decision is taken.
Step 04
Behavioural Profiling
In this stage, candidates are asked to undertake a behavioural profiling tool. The Authority utilises an empirically-validated tool that enables a comparison between the profile of the candidate, the job description and the competency profile set out for the position being recruited for.
Step 05
Job Offer
The final and most anticipated stage! Here, candidates should expect a job offer that satisfies their salary expectations set out at the very beginning of the process.
