More evidence from a recent report that the current way of working is not dealing with people's concerns around privacy.
Who will do something about it first!?

The Customer is Always Right
Which is great if you're the customer..
But here's the thing, if you're using a recruitment consultant you're not really the customer. The customer is the hiring manager who will pay the recruitment firm to fill the role. And all the customer cares about is quality of people and cost, NOT your service level.
The recruitment industry hence competes on price and quality of hires, which is much more loosely linked to happy hires.
What can be done...?

Contracting Growth
With large institutions unable to pivot and react to the rapidly changing way in which people want to do business and interact, and the ability to work remotely; the interest in freelancing/startups seems to be seeing steady growth. And the Prime Minister backs it!
Perhaps that's why the margins in recruitment are going up?
With people moving jobs more regularly the only way the current system could manage is by hiring more cold-callers and making more calls, even more regularly.
Clearly this is not going to scale in an economy where a growing number of the workforce are temporary workers..

We're really pleased to share the latest screen from our designer, Will Pomroy:
We're implementing this look and feel now and hope to have this out for you guys to use by end of February!
We have all the code working but getting the user experience just right is not a job that's worth rushing :)
