At the seminar in SSE's Aula, Anna Frick, a Swedish national who works as a recruiter at the WBG, shared information about her place of work, all the different areas in which the WBG is looking for talent and the different employment opportunities available. Attendees were given helpful advice on how to stand out as an applicant when applying to any of the WBG's exciting and sought after positions. With 189 member countries, staff from more than 170 countries, and offices in over 130 locations, the WBG is a unique global partnership that work in every major area of development.
