Ep 10 - Dominic Nelson, On wanting to start an agency from the moment he did his first deal and the harsh reality of his start experience
Description
In this weeks episode I met Dominic Nelson, the Founder of Jazz Personnel, a Niche recruitment Agency focussed on support staff into the Legal Sector.
Dom reached out to me on Instagram a few weeks back, to say he enjoyed listening to The RAG and would love to share his start up story.
Based in the North East of England with less than 2 years experience, he started recruiting from a Box room on his own! He dreamt of the glamour of being an owner, but he described his actual start up journey as ‘horrible’
He’s now survived 3 years and hired 2 more staff and is looking to break the London Legal market - but gives his honest opinion of the ‘North V South’ divide that exists in the UK recruitment industry!
An eye opening story that I hope adds value to anyone looking to start up in the future..
