What advice would you give to someone thinking of pursuing this career?

Absolutely do it, never ever a dull moment and no day is ever the same.

How long have you been doing your job?

I have been doing recruitment for over three years now. I spent two and a half years in agency recruitment, and I have been in Dunbia for 7 months now – my first job in this industry.

What’s the best thing about your job?

The best thing about my job is that again no two days are ever the same. I also really enjoy getting to know the employees from that first interaction.

If you had the chance to do it all over again, what would you do the same / differently? 

I would change nothing. I genuinely really enjoy my job, this industry and the path I took to get here.

If you could give your 16-year-old self some career advice, what would it be?

Stay resilient, it will be extremely beneficial both in work and outside work.
