What are recruitment firms typically looking for in a new hire? What benefits and career opportunities are out there for recruiters, recruitment leaders, and researchers in the Singapore market? How much should you expect to earn in your first year in recruitment? Tune in to listen to a content-rich episode with our guest rec2rec specialist in Asia, Justine Bower, Managing Director at Intuitive Recruitment.

In this episode, Justine shares what the benefits are to using a rec2rec specialist and what recruiters are looking for in a partner in their search to move roles. She will share her insights on what roles are in demand and in short supply across the region and why and what differentiates an average recruiter from an exceptional one. She’ll share her thoughts on the current challenges heads of recruitment firms are facing right now and in what ways companies are addressing remote working to retain their top talent and much more.
