Selecting your recruitment partner - to search or not to search...?!

When choosing a recruitment company, it is a good idea to consider carefully what you want from the relationship and choose a recruitment company to suit your circumstances.

A Time for Fresh Thinking

The News is full of depressing stories about bankruptcies, liquidations and job losses. The financial turmoil is likely to last for a while yet.
