SUPPLY CHAIN approach to ‘ Talent Attraction ’ by creating an in-house recruitment team to make the transition from agency based recruitment to direct sourcing and attraction . We also developed our QVC Employer identity . As a result , last year 79 percent of our new QVC team members were recruited either internally or directly by our in-house team .
“ When it comes to retention , we are committed to creating the best employee experience for our people . We achieve this through continued significant investment in learning and development , supporting our people in flexible working hours and focusing on health and well-being . Staff recognition is attained through a variety of initiatives such as our peer-to-peer recognition programme ‘ Making a Difference ’ and other quarterly events .”
QVC UK has also launched its own career channels on Facebook , Twitter , LinkedIn and external job websites . Its strongest areas of attraction are Media Broadcasting and TV production , Contact Centre and Distribution Centre . Outside of internal training and leadership programmes ( such as Six Sigma ), individuals have the opportunity for other educational training , such as NVQs , Further Education and soft skills sessions . All these components underpin an environment of continuous improvement at QVC UK , and numerous employees have progressed to advanced roles both in the UK and globally , as a result .
