A day in the life of...
How and why did you get into recruitment?
Accidentally!
I came here for a placement year at university thinking some office work would be good for my CV. I ended up loving the company culture and work environment and never looked back since!
What is the first thing you do when you get to work in the morning?
Other than often complaining about some of the rude Londoners I came into contact with on my commute? I check my calendar and make a day plan to ensure I’m as efficient as possible and not a second goes to waste.
What is your favourite part of the day/what tasks do you enjoy the most?
Speaking with candidates that don’t like their job and desperately want to move, finding out what they want and need from an employer and knowing I can help them.
What is the most challenging part of your job?
Accepting that you can’t place every job. When you’re invested and a role doesn’t go to plan it hurts but it’s got to be like water off a ducks back or it’ll affect your performance.
What keeps you motivated?
Of course, I'd be lying if I said the commission didn't have a part to play! But other than that genuinely knowing I have the opportunity to massively impact someone's life by finding them a role that will have them excited to go into work everyday.
What piece of advice would you give to someone starting out in recruitment?
Make sure you want it. Recruitment is good fun but hard work and to succeed you need to be 100% committed.
