2021 – just was.
It must be something about getting older, but the years just seem to be getting shorter. Celebrating our 25th anniversary was certainly a milestone for all of us involved with People Recruitment Group & despite the tough economic conditions, we’ve had one of our best years ever across both our executive search & general recruitment […]
We all want to be liked.
Wanting to be liked is a basic human trait and conversely, we usually don’t enjoy the experience of rejection.

Recognising traditional, First Nation place names

So, that was 2020? A year to remember for sure.
And while it may be contrary to the general theme of posts I’m reading on LI, before we set our sights on the year ahead my sense is we should be celebrating all things 2020. Whatever your circumstances, you’ve made it the end of the year. That’s an achievement in itself. It’s even more impressive […]
