    Lee Ashcroft - Memory

    In this podcast - I get to speak with Engineering Director Lee Ashcroft about the power of memory, the Mandela effect and our careers and how it effects us, both when seeking a job and in a job. I mention a video in there i made called the "career Mandela effect" - which triggered Lee to come speak to me about this - and do a podcast.

    Quantity, Quality, Quandary

    Off the back of a client asked me about why agencies send him irrelevant CVs - and I send the right ones, i discuss exactly that. Starting off with the weird month of Nov. And how it can be busy or dead. And my thoughts on poor-quality CV send and how to make it better.

    I've been Ghosted today..

    I was ghosted today, I meant to record a podcast with someone, but they never turned up - so I thought I would talk about ghosting, what its like, my opinion on different types of ghosting - and how to circumnavigate it in life - especially recruitment... off the back of this ironic ghosting. I also talk about the consequences of ghosting in recruitment.

    Solo Thoughts of 2023

    Once a year, I try to do a solo podcast with my thoughts about the world of recruitment, life, and its meaning. In this podcast, I talk about how the 2023 market seems to be different, but then give my thoughts on why candidates are not moving. I also link a few thoughts on why we recruiters have a different outlook on life.
