Y Broses Gwneud Cais
Rydyn ni eisiau gwneud ein rolau mor hygyrch ag y gallwn i’r ystod ehangaf bosibl o ymgeiswyr, felly mae’r sgyrsiau hyn yn rhoi cyfle i chi ofyn cwestiynau, i weld a yw eich sgiliau a’ch profiad yn addas, ac i gael gwybod mwy am y broses gwneud cais.
Trefnwch sgwrs dros y ffôn gyda ni cyn i chi wneud cais, a byddwn yn trafod y swydd gyda chi, a sut mae eich sgiliau a’ch profiad yn cyd-fynd â’r disgrifiad swydd a manyleb y person, a gallwn drafod sut mae llenwi’r ffurflen gais.
Ar ôl i chi gyflwyno eich ffurflen gais, byddwn yn cymharu eich cais â’r hyn rydyn ni’n chwilio amdano gan ddefnyddio’r manyleb person. Os byddwch yn addas, byddwn yn cysylltu â chi am gyfweliad.
