The recruitment agency market has fundamentally changed over the last decade, yet nobody is really talking about it: back in 2010 there was some 3,000 recruitment agencies in the UK with fewer than nine employees, fast forward to 2018 and there's now c.12,000. That's a fourfold increase in the number of independent agencies in Britain, and one of the core reasons Hiring Hub exists.
Hiring Hub CEO, Simon Swan, enlisted the help of comedian Joel Dommett to prank the Hiring Hub team on national television during Joel's ITV show, Home Alone with Joel Dommett.
Simon Swan, Hiring Hub's founder and CEO, explains why recruitment agencies aren't dying, but thriving. And why, while we accept the industry has an image problem, we're championing small, independent recruiters and helping them use their advantages over the bigger recruitment brands so that, together, we can improve the sector and make people feel good about recruitment.
