From a fellow recruiter I thought this was really interesting Marcus Nanson CeMAP. It was nostalgic hearing Roger Morris talk about the sub prime crash and seeing so many big brands - EM Financial, Beacon, Rooftop, Victoria Mortgages, Mplc etc disappeared almost overnight. We were nearly very close to joining them but luckily managed to trade through. Keep up the interesting content!
