Comment by Sue Bourke on August 25, 2008 at 7:57pm: Hi guys - As a recruiter for over ten years and now working with a mate helping her grow her business in Asia and Australia in Rec to Rec, I would be really interested in knowing how you guys look for work or people. It is becoming more difficult to find "non jaded" recruiters who are experienced that are looking for the next challenge. What makes you take the next step? If you would like to answer this off the record my personal email address is suejanemartin@gmail.com
