Starting his career with Hays, we discussed his experiences there before exploring other companies and ways of working, which for those who are interested in leaving the corporate world.Steve gives an insight into how he approached this. We also discuss the power of content and social media presence and how that can (and should) go in hand with old school recruiting methods.For recruiters who are wanting to learn more about personal branding and Steve’s book, this one’s for you.For the junior consultants out there, this is an excellent podcast to learn more about a top biller’s day structure, which for those who are maybe struggling with a WFH model could benefit from having a new working process put in place!Timestamps:How did Steve get into recruitment?
