My first 12 months in Recruitment
On the 2nd May this year I completed my first year working in recruitment. Sitting here now 12 months on, I can confidently say they have been the best 12 months of my working career. When I finished University in 2013, I couldn’t wait to get back into full time work. You see, I wasn’t the best s...

From fixing bogs to filling jobs
Having just finished School at the ripe old age of 15, awaiting my GCSE Results and my 16th Birthday, I still hadn’t decided what I wanted to do with the next few years of my life. I didn’t have a clue when it came to a career for when I was older and I don’t think I’d even thought about it after...

Dream, Believe and you CAN achieve
The picture on the left is me back in 2013 in a drug induced coma fighting off pneumonia. Two weeks, three heart stoppages and a collapsed lung later, they woke me up. Whilst bed ridden, I had a long time to reflect on missed opportunities in my life. I thought about the things I wanted to achiev...
