You have to enjoy what you do and I have to say that I love working in recruitment. The challenge in 'getting it right' is rewarding when you see it work out for both your client and their new employee. After working in Sydney, graduating from HR and relocating to the Gold Coast in 2001, it took me almost a year of hard knock-backs to finally get out of where I was and into the recruitment/HR space. A special thanks goes out to a very kind person that decided to back me and give me a 'go' as they say. One thing that I learned during that year of looking was to never forget that I was a job seeker and it's something that I bring to our agency (New Point Recruitment) today. Without candidates we just have a lot of job orders to fill.At New Point Recruitment our focus is to help local businesses connect with great people. We have also created something unique in the market that has made recruitment accessible to businesses regardless of their size. We feel that this has a great flow on effect for some of the smaller businesses in the region as they now have access to the expertise of a recruitment agency to source staff for their growing business.Our areas of focus include:* Accounting & Finance* Legal (Professionals & Support staff)* IT / Design / Development* Administration / HR* Digital Marketing* Sales / BDM / Account Management* Engineering / Technical* Property & Construction* ExecutiveI am also proud the Founder of the Gold Coast Professionals Hub, with a group page on LinkedIn currently exceeding 2000 local members. It was created in 2015 but reignited during 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 outbreak and subsequent lockdowns. I wanted to bring a sense of community to work together in such a difficult time and also include fortnightly Coffee Catch Ups and small events to bring people together to build great professional and personal relationships. We have built a strong professional network and client base and I really enjoy doing business with my clients. Please feel free to reach out and connect with me.
