Yes, France is special…but not in recruiting!

Well, of course, that is not true. Plenty about France is special. Like the cheese. And the cafés. And the bread. And a delicious glass of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Or Duck Confit.

Recruitment. Better to fail than be mediocre

You are a recruiter. Doesn’t matter where you work, or what you do. If you recruit, especially in an agency, you will end up with a future that looks like one of these three. 1: You are superb at it. You learn the skills, you earn the relationships. You enjoy high self-esteem, respect from your […]

Dear Hiring Manager….

Dear Hiring Manager, So, just to make sure I clearly understand you. You consistently call our entire industry  ‘cowboys’, who add no value and who cannot, or will not, build relationships. You often warm to your theme by telling us we don’t understand your business or your briefs, fail to match appropriately, never provide insights, […]
