It’s been a cracking year for our fundraiser for Brain Tumour Research.
We could waffle all we want about the amazing things we’ve done, but we thought it was better to let Han tell you what this year has been like, and what it means to her.
Why feedback is a powerful tool in your recruitment process
If you’ve ever applied for a job, you’ll know that interview feedback can be like gold dust; that is, in short supply and hard to come by. Even if you do receive it, it typically comes via email and can include such gems as “you weren’t the right fit”, “you were pipped to the post” and “someone scored higher than you on the technical test”. None of these actually tell the candidate anything they are able to use.
Is a temp the gift you need this holiday season?
We’re heading rapidly towards the Christmas period, and the time of year where work starts to pile up as people take leave and time away from work. The big rush to get everything wrapped up by the end of the year, keep of top of current workloads and make plans for the new year can really make the end of the year feel overwhelming.

We need to change the way we’re thinking about the idea of a four-day working week.
