We made it through January!

3rd February 2021 | Career AdviceJob HuntingMotivationalYourRecruit

We made it through January!  Quite frankly, we should all give ourselves a pat on the back for this – I know January’s are long, but really had no idea there were 248 days in January 2021.  However, we are now fully into February, the short month (pay day comes around quicker!) the month of love, the month of breaking New Year’s resolutions completely.

Happy New Year??

21st January 2021 | Career AdviceJob HuntingLockdownRecruitingYourRecruit

I wonder how everyone is feeling about starting a New Year in full Lockdown again.  Roll back to the 23rd March last year, we were just hearing about the word Lockdown and I think most of us were terrified.  Everything literally stopped overnight, staff prepared to work from home if their company still had any work to do, and thousands of us were put on Furlough Leave (a word I had never heard of).

3rd December 2018 | MotivationalNewsYourRecruit

December is a festive month, and also a reflective one. Undoubtedly, it is a time of thanks and appreciation. Internally, we are mega grateful for our MD and our Directors. However, this blog is for you. This year has been a challenge for many, (do we need to say the 'B' word?!) but we have experienced success and really good times. Obviously, GDPR has affected nearly every business in the UK however, it is pleasing for us to realise that we actually conformed to so many requirements before...

At YourRecruit, we love Christmas. The Christmas tree is up. The advent calendars are in position. The party outfits are hanging in wait. We savour every moment. However, we know what happens post Christmas. January blues are not a joke or click bait. In fact, they are the reality of many people across the UK. Therefore, practising self-care is extremely important. What is self-care? Self-care is the practice of looking after oneself. Often, January 1st sparks new diets, new fitness...

This week saw the reawakening of nineties kids all over the world, to the sound of a zig-a-zig-ah. Between 1000 and 1030 on Saturday morning, thousands of Spice Girls fans frantically refreshed their internet browsers in order to secure arena tickets for a reunion tour.  I did not acquire said tickets, but there is always hope. So tell me what you want, what you really, really want... Throughout the months of September and October, our clients completed a survey detailing their preferences...

1st October 2018 | MotivationalNewsYourRecruit

"Pivot, pivot, PIVOT" We all remember that episode of Friends, where Ross and Chandler were manoeuvring a large sofa down the apartment block's stairs, whilst Rachel coolly assisted. However, she soon idly stepped away when the instructions became a bit too...real. The word "pivot" never had the same meaning again. It was a bit like that on Friday. Despite only moving down a floor and along an - albeit labyrinthine - corridor, the pressure was on. Crates of computers, telephones,...
