At the end of last year Michelle Jones, founder and ex-Managing Director of Simply lawjobs, started a new online recruitment business, called e-recruitment buddy.The company provides a bespoke vacancy management service to direct employers and recruiters, together with a range of specialist digital recruiting services.

Intrigued by the company’s offering we caught up with Michelle for a short interview, which is available via the born Audio Player.

During the interview Michelle discusses a range of topics, from pay-per-click advertising to the future of job boards in online recruitment. We also discuss whether digital recruitment has become too complex.

E-recruitment buddy is primarily aimed at the SME marketplace and brings together Michelle’s wealth of experience and online skills. The company offers fix-fee recruitment services, which are clearly attractive in the current economic climate.
