Have you experienced The Frustration Cycle

This is one of the most frustrating parts of being a recruiter - when a company tells you they want to recruit, but then tell you they haven't the time to do it. Here is my interpretation of this annoyance - I have called it The Frustration Cycle!!

 

Anyone suffer the same?

Come on Orange, make these surveys meaningful...please!

There are surveys and then they are surveys! It must be the time of year for people stating the obvious, and seemingly wasting money doing so. Orange have released a study this week in Enterprise week, saying that small businesses lack the financial resources to attract talented people with high salary demands - thanks Orange Business Services for that blindingly obvious statement - I learnt that in 'o' level economics a long time ago!!

Come on REC you can do better than that

REC gives us all a lesson in stating the obvious!!  It is good to see the governing body of recruitment - REC - issuing a press release, promoting their new latest employment survey, but why make it so 'old news' and obvious?  Who are members of REC after all - recruitment agencies of course. Do we really need to be told that the 'War for Talent' is the main issue facing our industry, when we experience this every day (and have done for many months!!) with our clients. No I don't think so!!

Do REC  believe that recruitment consultants don't have any idea about their own industry......obviously they do!!  Reassuring then, that they represent the recruitment industry isn't it??!!!
