    Buying our firm's 5th Electric Car

    Moving to Electric Cars for our international relocation business has not all been a bed of roses.  It's been a journey of UPs and DOWNs. This episode is about the acquisition of the 5th electric car, and 2nd Tesla.   So, what do electric cars have to do with relocating talent internationally?  Well, the answer is, probably not a lot – directly anyway. But this purchase experience from the best electric car-maker in the world, and the impression it made on us as customers, made us think about what an international relocatee goes through. Once the employer extends an offer to a candidate, the candidate’s impression of the employer goes one of two ways.  EVERY interaction with the new employer either REINFORCES or UNDERMINES the candidate's impression of the employer's brand. So it was with our electric car experience.  Discover more by listening to this episode.  And watch out for the version on YouTube where you'll be able to see, among other things, all 5 of the EVs we've so far purchased.

    In this episode, Christine and Tony discuss how their international relocation firm is now doing a great deal more of what the business originally did - i.e. majoring in supporting employers who are hiring critical new talent from all over the world. Of course, the overarching objective is to provide unrivalled international relocation support to the Candidate, but the main thrust of the discussion centred around an example of a hidden benefit for employers.  Think Wobbly Candidate Alert!

    Relocation & Talent Acquisition

    Since the easing of pandemic restrictions, there's been a strong uptick in corporate mandates to provide international relocation assistance - especially in support of #TalentAcquisition projects. This new trend has a strong connection to how Christine and I started our international relocation firm, Saunders 1865 - The VIP Relocation Company. In this episode, Tony talks about the firm's very first corporate relocations which were of vital importance to the employer who retained Tony's company.

    COVID has sent the UK housing market into a frenzy. What's going on?

    The COVID pandemic has had an unexpected effect on the UK housing market. There's been a mad rush to escape to rural locations with numerous takers chasing a dwindling number of homes in the countryside. In this episode, Christine and Tony (co-owners and founders of Saunders 1865 - The VIP Relocation Company) discuss what led to their decision to move from central London (Kensington area) to the base of Bredon Hill in the rural Cotswolds.  Since then, there's been a stampede, with multiple people chasing the same home, leading to a real estate boom that nobody ever expected. What's going on?  What will this do to the international relocation business?
