1 个月Thanks for sharing Debbie Blackwell An interesting set of data “astounding 77% of UK firms plan to either increase or retain their critical permanent, contract, and project-based headcount.” It slightly scares me. Advice to jobseekers is not to rest on your laurels…network network network with gusto and passion and maybe not make all the networking about your job search but making connections that will follow you through your career.
