By Ross Clennett | Apr 3, 2019
Although I have been in the recruitment industry for just over thirty years there’s always another surprise around the corner.

I estimated I have experienced 1570 Greg Savage professional development events* over the 28 years I have been (i) a recruiter in a company that Greg leads, (ii) a leader…

Poorly performing agencies stay that way, regardless of the market

By Ross Clennett | Feb 25, 2019
When the recruitment industry is going through a flat spot with it can provide false comfort to recruitment agency owners and leaders whose businesses are struggling to improve sales and profit.
