3 generations of recruiters come together and delve into what it takes to be successful in the recruitment industry.

In this episode I am joined by Harry Portch, one of the UK’s youngest recruitment agency owners and Dominic Joyce with over 10 years experience working in recruitment, talent acquisition across agency, RPO and in-house.

We get into the nitty gritty of what recruitment consultants get wrong, right and everything in between. From building the right culture in the modern recruitment industry to our views on LinkedIn and personal branding.

This is a must listen for recruiters at any stage of their careers.
