How Could Autonomous Vehicles Affect Jobs In The Automotive Industry?
With the government ban of the sale of new petrol and diesel cards by 2030 and the impressive progress and developments on self-driving and autonomous vehicles, is the automotive industry being forced in a different direction? We wanted to take a look at the impact of these changes on the workers in the automotive industry, and how their jobs may be impacted in the future. Necessity for a New Skill Set With the continuous increase of investment in self-driving and environmentally friendly electric vehicles, mechanics are going to need to adopt a new skill set. Car body control modules are already filled with unique scripts and software that’s a challenge for body shop owners and mechanics, but with the rise of self-driving technology the internal workings of cars will only get more complicated. Automotive companies may need to hire new experts with specialised knowledge in autonomous vehicle engineering. Introduction of Further Smart Vehicle Technologies As the availability for smart and autonomous vehicles increases, so will the demand for further smart technologies, such as smart motorways. Smart motorways have been in development for many years, and governments are still adapting their plans. As self-driving car technology advances, so too will smart motorways and potentially other smart automotive technologies. Workers in the automotive industry will need to prepare for such changes in their industry. Changing of Road Insurance and Regulation Policy Furthermore, not only those with automotive jobs such as mechanics and designers will be impacted, but also those who work in car insurance and policy making. With a new introduction of potential faults and accidents related to autonomous vehicle failure, this brings an entirely different field of legal questions into the mix. Companies may need to hire additional staff to deal with claims or adjust the rules of the road to account for the rise of self-driving cars.

6 Recruitment Trends For 2021
Despite the current climate 2021 brings with it a whole new range of possibilities for the workplace. Below, we explore some of the trends which we think are most likely to change in 2021. Remote Working While we may see the return of many employees back to offices, it is undeniable that remote working has become a new possibility for many organisations. A 2020 IBM survey found that two thirds of remote workers wanted to continue working from home, and just more than half would prefer it as their main mode of employment. This year we may see an increase in remote working job opportunities, and possibly more flexibility from companies regarding the ability for employees to work remotely part-time. Increase in Virtual Interviews Alongside an increase in remote working, it is also likely that in this year the popularity for virtual interviews will follow suit. With more fine tuned tools for virtual communication available than ever before, there are less obstacles in the way of virtual interviews, which are also much more convenient for both parties. This combination of remote working and virtual interviewing could also lead to a greater globalisation in job opportunities as well, with employees being able to work with teams across the globe from a simple push of a button. Psychometric Tests Becoming More Popular No face-to-face meetings and virtual interviews do leave a difficulty in ensuring that new hires are fully capable of the tasks presented by a job. That is why online psychometric tests are becoming more popular and will inevitably be used more frequently. They provide a simple way for employers to assess talent and skill level from a distance. Broader Hiring Criteria In the world of online work, communication, problem-solving and collaboration are not the only skills necessary for a functioning team member. Organisations will be looking to hire individuals with a broader skill set e.g., new media literacy, virtual collaboration, responsive and proactive thinking, cross-cultural competency, social intelligence and systems thinking. We can also expect to see companies aiming to secure more diversity in their organisation, with a strong push this year for greater equality in the hiring process. Social Media recruiting Recruiting on social media is no longer a supplemental option, with almost 85% of companies saying that they have hired on social media with great success. This is where a lot of young candidates are now actively finding and looking for jobs. It’s no longer enough to simply advertise a position on LinkedIn, it is important for organisations to cultivate smart relationships that proactively engage candidates individually. Use Of Talent Pools/Internal Hiring Finally, we have also seen the emergence of companies using talent pools as a hiring strategy. By maintaining a talent pool of internal and external candidates, companies can ensure that they will find qualified and experienced hires more quickly. Internal hiring is also seeing an uptake, with employees more frequently advancing within a single organization.

How To Master Your Zoom Interview
With Zoom slowly taking over the digital communication world, it is becoming increasingly used for digital meetings and interviews. So to put yourself ahead of the crowd, make sure you familiarise yourself with the platform before your interview. Here are some simple tips to help you master your first Zoom interview: Use The Mute Button Zoom has a feature where you can mute your audio. This is a great feature to use while your interviewer is speaking for long periods. While using the mute button, they cannot hear anything on your end. This is useful when there are loud sounds in your household such as dogs barking or children playing. Keeping yourself on mute as they speak can help your interviewer feel more focused on what they want to tell you. Just don’t forget to unmute when you want to talk! Look Into The Camera While Speaking Video calls often make maintaining eye contact difficult, with many people not knowing where to look. In your interview, instead of looking at your interviewers eyes on the screen, look into the camera as you are speaking. This creates the illusion that you are looking at them rather than yourself or the screen and creates a more natural feeling of conversation. Select An Appropriate Background When choosing your interview location, make sure to choose an area that is tidy and free of personal items and clutter. Setting up in front of a blank wall with possibly a few tasteful decorations shows that you are organized and professional. You should also ensure that whatever area you choose has sufficient light, so your interviewer can easily see you. Setting up with a window behind you can cast shadows and make you appear to look like a silhouette, so try to set up facing a window, where possible. Use A Laptop or Computer Although Zoom has a mobile app, it is always better to use the desktop version. Having your computer on a table creates a more stationary and professional view of yourself than holding or resting your phone on something. Also make sure that your laptop is plugged into a charger - you don’t want to end up searching for your charger half-way through the interview. Ensure You Have A Stable Internet Connection A strong internet connection is vital to your interview. Prior to your Zoom call, make sure you test out your connection where you plan to sit during your interview. If you can stream video or Zoom call other people, then you are likely to have a solid connection during your interview. Dress Professionally You should dress the same for a Zoom interview as you would for an in-person interview. This means you should wear formal business attire. This includes your bottom half - even if the interviewer cannot see it, make sure you are dressed appropriately from top to bottom, just in case. Ask Questions This is just as important in Zoom interviews as it is in face-to-face interviews! Appropriate questions could be about the company's culture, the role's responsibilities or what the interviewer enjoys about the company. You can prepare questions prior to the interview or listen out for things to ask about during the interview. Asking questions shows that you are interested, attentive and eager for the job - you want to leave the interviewer thinking that you are eager for the position and not afraid to ask questions. Here at Auto Skills, we have employers approaching us with new vacancies every single day.

Top 5 Mistakes that People Make when Applying for Car Jobs
The team at Auto Skills UK look at loads of applications from automotive professionals, but we’ll only put forward an applicant if we think that they are the right fit for the job. That being said - there are some common mistakes that we’ve spotted that will cause your application to stick out for all the wrong reasons. Here are our top five mistakes… and ways that you can avoid making them! Spelling errors It’s really important to check your CV and your cover letter carefully and make sure that your spelling and grammar are accurate. You could use a free online spellchecker like Grammarly, or ask someone to take a look at your application before you send it. Out of date information Any time you start a new job search, you should update your CV. Be sure include to your most recent role at the top, or if you’re currently unemployed, you could mention any training or projects you’ve been doing during this time. Potential employers will spot any gaps in employment straight away and usually ask you about these, so it’s best to provide a brief, professional reason where you can. A generic CV Whilst not everyone is a design pro, your CV should be more than just a piece of A4 paper with a wall of text written in ‘Times New Roman’. Things like changing the font and adding columns, headings or tables can make a big difference when there’s a pile of applications to look through. Using auto-fill When you’re applying for a job online, a lot of places will have an option to ‘auto-fill’ the form using information from your CV, LinkedIn or Facebook page. This can often go wrong - leaving your application muddled or incomplete - so if you do try and use this feature, double-check what information has been pulled through and edit it as necessary. Online history Try searching for your name on someone else’s phone or computer – you might be surprised at what comes up! A lot of employers will do a quick online search for applicants’ names nowadays, so we recommend making your online profiles private when applying for jobs. After all, the last thing you want is for your future boss to see embarrassing holiday photos from Malia 2008, or a stream of angry tweets about your football team losing! Looking for a new role? Sign up with Auto Skills UK today and we will help you every step of the way - from your initial application to your first day on the job!
