Categories:

The Millennial Recruiter is a podcast aimed at sharing value to agency recruiters to support them achieve their goals. In this episode, I speak to Chris O'Connell, a well-renouned leadership coach who has conquered the recruitment industry in numerous roles; whether that was as one of the top billers in S3 to then building his own recruitment business (which turned over more then £20Million Annually). We had a diverse conversation about what it means to succeed within the recruitment industry, and why money shouldn't be the sole motivator. We also talked about how the recruitment industry has changed, why KPI's are more fluid, and how building a  personal brand has become one of the best strategies to win both new businesses and acquire candidates. Finally, we spoke about the importance of balance and mental health.  You can follow Chris on his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/itschrisoconnell/
