Getting the best out of your recruitment consultant
|
|
|
|
|
I’ve worked in accountancy and finance recruitment for 21 years, and with the advancement of technology the landscape has changed drastically over that time. It’s fair to say that the job market is flooded with candidates. It’s so easy now to apply for roles online – whether direct with a business or via a recruiter – and as each month passes there are more and more CVs ‘out there’ on the CV databases and job boards. Businesses and agencies can be inundated with applications.
