On Recruitment

This book will be appreciated by people who don't ever need to be involved in the hiring of a new staff member. Everybody has to work in recruitment at some point in their life - even if it's only to find a job.

Mitch Sullivan has experienced recruitment from a number of different perspectives - not least those of a hiring manager and a job seeker. He's spent nearly 30 years in the industry - in agencies, in large corporates and as a recruitment copywriter.

His blogging style has been described as "three chords and the truth" - partly because each blog generally takes less than a couple of minutes to read and partly because of the unapologetic sarcasm and wit he uses to deliver this honesty.

This book is a collection of some of the 150 blogs he's written on recruitment, covering areas of the industry as diverse as agency culture, retained recruitment, assessment, employer branding, job advertising, the candidate experience and even employee engagement.
