James Lewis and I talk about his leap from IT contractor to being a recruiter in that market and his new movement #Antirecrutiment. Stemmed from his experience with recruiters and as a hiring manager - Jamie wants to bring Quality Service and knowledge to the forefront of recruitment. 

Also we have a little rant of bad recruitment practice, why some companies are bad, IR35 changes, and what it means, and a tiny mention on Brexit, as it was recorded on Brexit day! 

Hope you enjoy! 

Simon Jay talked about starting a business, what recruitment contractor finance is, and what he is doing in this market, being I think one of the first to compare the market for Recruitment Business owners. 

We have a great natter about starting a business, pitfalls, and issues, coupled with your mindset and motivation. 

Make sure you reach out to Simon, and connect! 

James Moloney - MD of Clinical Selection and I have a chat about Politics and what is going one today, linking Brexit with issues in society and what could happen next for us. 

I get to speak too, in this podcast the Infamous Hannah Mays - who was mentioned on a previous podcast - with Kat Reid. Hannah works for SRG - specialising in the recruitment of scientific recruitment - and like all specialist recruitment - it requires a niche end search. We talk about that, and about her past too, working in pretty much every flavour of the recruitment sector from RPO to internal to External - and how she transitioned, and her past as a scientist! 

This week I get to speak with a person I have got to know, whilst she has grown her career from finishing a Degree in Philosophy to by 26 being the Head of a Department in a growing IT company. Leaning along the way, and carving a career out in the IT industry. Also - reflecting on her past, and seeing if can pull some pearls of wisdom for the listeners to learn about her Journey. And also a lot of bits and bobs along the way. 

I really enjoyed hearing Grace's story, Super lovely lady! 

Very Quick Update Podcast to say - Hey, I am still alive, with a couple of things I have been up too, and what is coming soon. 

Thanks for listening! 

Who is that Lady doing those Lip Syncing videos? well - it's none other than the lovely - Jemma Lea Bevan. 

In this podcast, we talk about the pro's of IOR membership, the need to be doing video content, with some brilliant examples of it. And the feedback and business she gets from being the Lip Syncing Queen of Linkedin. Super interesting conversation with Jemma! 

What is it like to be a candidate - searching for a job, for days, weeks, months even? 

I get to chat to one of my fav. canadians in the world, other than Ryan Reynolds - Semira Amiralai, who has been looking for a job in Vancouver for the past 10 months. We discuss something that she is really concerned about - being a recruiter herself - the candidate experience.  

This podcast is raw, no holds bad, honest - and at one point - very emotional - and I think Semira for this, as we all need to hear this. 

If you love Psychology - and understanding your mind, and want to learn about not becoming a victim anymore, or even stop being a bully, as well as learning about yourself - and strengthening you for your future. You need to hear Paul Ryder of Mind Islands podcast with me. 

The Author of Hidden Mask of your Mind, Paul and I discuss what he does, and how he helps people on the journey of self realisation - stopping them being the victim, or bully, and how to become the person you have always wanted to be. And also over coming Anxiety, by understanding what it is causing it. I really enjoyed speaking with Paul about his profession and how he helps people - and listening to his Journey. 

I hope you enjoy this podcast!

The Guru, the Master of video, Mark Gaisford & I talk about his journey through ADHD, video, going viral and the associated issues with it, and the recruitment industry. 

I am a real follower of Mark's stuff, and believe that as a recruitment business, his template is what we need to be looking at for the future of our businesses.
