  • Why Great Business Leaders Must Be Great Recruiters

    In the world of business, leadership is often associated with vision, strategy, and decision-making.  While these qualities are undeniably important, one critical aspect is frequently underestimated: the ability to recruit the right team.  No matter how compelling a leader’s vision may be, success ultimately depends on the people who bring it to life.  Building a […]

  • The “Art” of the resume

    I’ve been supporting an organisation with some outplacement work which has given rise to reflection and discussion around what constitutes a ‘good’ resume.   Concurrently, I’ve been supporting another organisation with screening and shortlisting from advertising they ran for two very different roles.     And the difference between resumes in different verticals is enormous. Keep it simple.   […]

  • From Law to Legal Recruitment: Why I Traded Case Law for Conversations

    Like many year 12 students, I didn’t go into university with a perfectly mapped-out career plan. I chose Law at the UQ for a mix of reasons: expectation, the influence of famous courtroom TV dramas, and if I’m being completely honest… a bit too much of a passion for arguing. I went on to work […]

  • The benefits of Taking Annual Leave in the Workplace

    This year was the first time I went back to Greece in fifteen years, for my friend’s wedding. Had I not have had the wedding, I most likely wouldn’t have gone, putting it off for another year, then another I’m sure. To say I am structured and planned in my life is an understatement. But, […]

  • The Pay Gap Nobody Talks About: What Your Project Manager Title Really Means

    Here’s something no one in construction really says out loud: Two people can stand shoulder-to-shoulder at the same pub, both proudly flashing “Project Manager” on their business card. One is counting coins to split the bill, and the other is at the bar buying a round of Stone & Wood for the entire table. Same […]
