Have you ever had a proactive recruiter on your team, advocating for you in the background? Today I am talking with Jonathan Foxley about how to stand out in an increasingly competitive recruitment market.

In this practical episode, experienced recruiter Jonathan Foxley and I are talking about a range of different topics including:

1. Getting hired in today's market

2. The impact of AI on your application and how to circumnavigate that

3. Real-world stories about how candidates have stood out amongst a sea of candidates

4. The critical advantage having an experienced recruiter advocating for you


Jonathan, on the value a proactive recruiter can have on your career: 

"My role is to advocate for candidates, understand their drivers, enthusiasm and ambition, where they want to go, and the impacts they've made in previous roles so I can talk to that when I'm advocating for them to my clients and essentially getting them a foot in the door."
