bobcheck

Here is my yearly appreciation post to say thanks to a number of people that have helped and shaped my year with bobcheck. First of all the team at (TRN) The Recruitment Network for bringing me into the ecosystem and helping bobcheck grow within their user group. James Osborne, Gordon Stoddart Taireen Hussain Shezelle Hunt. Im looking forward to the January meetup. Also for Dan Prince for looking after me at the summer retreat (and beating me at golf) Milly Morris and the team for welcoming me to the Bullhorn Marketplace. Gary Cordery for seeing the vision with my idea (in development). I had a great Engage event and nice to meet Joe McGuire and Marius Meissner. Thanks to Carl Jones for putting up with my constant Whatsapp voice notes and Timothy Hogwood for your time. Well done to Thomas Vose and the HireAra team. Great to get to know you this year! Special thanks goes to Kamal Ladwa and Holly Langley. Thanks for believing in bobcheck and support this year! Very special shout out to Richard Caldicott ... you know why ;-) Finally to the bobcheck team. We've had a GREAT year and 2025 is looking strong, positive and as Kalpesh Baxi says, 'Lets see the hockey stick growth'.

I’ve thought hard about posting this, but I’ve recently been diagnosed with ADHD. Here’s a summary of what it’s like, so if you have a friend, colleague, or family member, spare a thought. Getting the diagnosis past 40 years old has been happily eye opening. There’s a lot of chatter with many adults getting diagnosed late in life, as we now have a better understanding of what ADHD is. After a close family member was diagnosed, my wife read the symptoms on a leaflet, looked up, and just said, “That’s you.” 🎉 It’s not that we can’t concentrate; it’s the length of time we can concentrate. This, for me, was and is the hardest part. I always thought I was a daydreamer, an inattentive kid, unable to retain concentration when others can. Looking back, it affected my school, grades, and outcomes, but I’m very happy with who I am and where it has gotten me in life. Many say the best jobs for someone with ADHD are in Sales and being an Entrepreneur, so landing in recruitment and then running my own company has suited me well. Coping mechanisms have been built over time, but frustrations as to why I can’t focus for long periods and retain knowledge are at the core. 🎉 Hyperfocus So, the absolute opposite of “can’t focus” is flipping to hyperfocus for a very short period, with gaming, toys, or even homework (cramming it in) as prime examples. 🎉 Dopamine Hits (Alcohol Doesn’t Help) I’m sure there are statistics for ADHD vs. Alcoholism, and you can Google it (not going into it here), but your brain is looking for a dopamine hit. Instagram and social media don’t help, but alcohol is strongly linked to people with ADHD. I’m happy to say I’ve learned to enjoy a nice glass of Australian Shiraz and stop when content. Some others can’t. 🎉 Ignoring the List (Sorry, Wife) You get easily overwhelmed with a series of tasks and lists, so what do you do? Ignore the tasks/list and just do something else less overwhelming. My wife saw me/my brain shut down the other week when I got overwhelmed, and I had to break down each task, process, and project to start again. So, when I was in recruitment and I had six different roles, 100 applicants, clients calling, candidates calling, KPIs to meet, managers asking questions… just writing brings back memories, I struggled. It often took a lot longer to get the basic tasks completed.   🎉 Seeming Impatient/Impulsive Often, we don’t have the calm patience of someone without ADHD and either just do it, finish others’ sentences, predict the ending of a story, or impulse buy ; it’s all linked. 🎉 Often Overwhelmed in Social Situations I’m a pretty confident guy, but it mainly stems from being in so many social situations. I’ve built up an armoury of good coping mechanisms. Often, when networking or meeting new people, I do struggle, so I just drop the anxiety and talk (impatience), hyperfocus on the event, and flit between conversations. It’s not a neurodiversity; it’s a superpower! #adhd #superpower

It’s Tech Stack Tuesday folks 🧡💙 Today I ask, how many 'missed' fees have you had in 2024? Even in a buoyant market I'm sure every agency wants to say none! So, in a market where every deal counts… You should be doing everything in your power to protect your revenue! 🫰 What better way to do that, than to have a tool scouring your data; 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year 📅 ⏲️ To notify you of back-door placements and missed fees? 🤑 If you suspect you could be falling victim to missed fees...

I met up with my first ever boss this morning. Graeme Hubert took me under his wing 20 years ago when I started as a researcher. I struggled to get to grips with the intensity, demands and speed you have to work at in recruitment. He was patient, kind and humble with teaching me what I need to know. It was great catching up on old times, his move to Dubai and running through what bobcheck really means to agencies. Such a great morning. We shouted FORE a lot. 😂. Sorry for the terrible picture.

Dubai here we come. My yearly visit to meet bobcheck customers and co-founders in Dubai I'm still flabbergasted at how big the planes have got. I still have a slot on Thursday at 4pm local time if you want to meet re bobcheck and how we are helping customers protect their revenue.
