What if the key to thriving in the recruitment industry lies in rekindling old-school techniques and fostering genuine relationships? Join us for an exclusive conversation with Patrick from Geddon Executive Recruitment as he recounts his incredible journey from a small recruitment firm in Belfast to becoming an industry leader across APAC, the UK, Europe, and the USA. Patrick's inspiring story emphasizes the power of community-building through innovative events like "Estimators and Entertainment" nights, breaking traditional stereotypes and creating valuable connections within the construction industry.

Discover the intricacies of specializing in construction estimators in the Brisbane market, a niche that offers unique challenges and immense rewards. Patrick shares his insights into the evolving dynamics of Australian cities, the critical value estimators add to construction projects, and the success that stems from focusing on a specialized market. Listen closely as we explore the anxiety of narrowing one's focus and the profound satisfaction that comes from mastering a niche, particularly within the relationship-driven landscape of Brisbane.

Our discussion then expands to the complexities of international recruitment, particularly in the American market. Patrick explains how continuous engagement and relationship-building post-networking events can turn professional connections into friendships and unlock new business opportunities. We delve into the strategic shift within Geddon Executive Recruitment to maximize efficiency and client satisfaction, leveraging old-school tactics with innovative strategies. Patrick's experiences highlight the significance of understanding individual motivations, the benefits of VA support, and the potential of feedback loops to boost recruitment success in specialized industries.
