Description

What should you do in the first 90 days of running a new recruitment team? What processes, skills, and behaviors are required to be successful in recruitment?

Join Andrea Ross, founder of The Career Establishment, for an awe-inspiring exclusive conversation with Alena Salakhova, Regional Director at SThree based in Singapore. With two degrees, a Ph.D. in Sociology under her belt, and 11 years climbing the ranks of recruitment in Moscow, San Francisco, and more recently Singapore, it’s little wonder this people developer has caused quite a stir in Asia. Alena spent five years with Michael Page in leadership positions in Moscow before moving to Adecco. In 2016 she relocated to Singapore to join Hudson as their Regional Director before moving in January 2020 to SThree.

Alena is probably one of the most inspiring female leaders in recruitment, so get your earbuds in and enjoy the interview we certainly did recording it.
