Career fulfillment for me does not necessarily equate to increased responsibility; I find great joy in the variety I can infuse into my work and the personal connections I am able to make.

What Is Your Why? In recruitment, the “why” behind what we do is often overlooked. It’s not just about filling roles or meeting targets—it’s about connecting people to opportunities that truly transform their lives. I’ve seen firsthand how a single career move can change someone’s entire trajectory. It can mean more financial stability, personal growth, or simply waking up excited for work again. For me, that’s the “why.” It’s knowing that every conversation, every placement, every bit of effort has the potential to make a lasting difference. So, what’s your “why”? Whether you’re a recruiter, a candidate, or a business leader, it’s worth reflecting on what drives you. Drop your thoughts below—I’d love to hear them. #Recruitment #Leadership #Purpose #core8group

Invest in their future, and they'll invest in yours. #Leadership #EmployeeRetention #CareerDevelopment #BeIntentional #BeAccountable

However, I've seen many individuals struggle in roles that don't align with their interests or skill sets. This often leads to unfair judgments from managers, impacting employees' self-esteem and confidence, even when interviewing for other roles. Yet, when placed in suitable positions, these individuals thrive and excel. Food for thought: Shouldn't companies prioritize internal assessments to identify and harness each employee's unique strengths, reassigning roles to better match their skills and interests?
