Why ‘agency recruitment’ is totally screwed

The recruitment agency business model is grotesquely dysfunctional. It is broken. Yes. It. Is. Certainly for permanent recruitment. We are just so used to it, have it so imbued in our psyche, that we don’t appreciated how farcical and damaging it is. For everybody. Multi-listed, contingent job-orders benefit no-one. Clients, naively thinking they get a […]

Dead recruiter walking

The truth is that clients are deserting the recruitment industry in droves.
