In this episode, I'm joined by good friend and colleague Louis Cross, now Director at Collabz - an in-house talent company that helps small businesses play big in the talent market.Louis has spent a decade in the recruitment industry, spending all of those years working for one company, but across six different positions, three distinctly different brands, and three different models, starting with an agency, moving to RPO and lastly in house. Each move has seen him start from the bottom and work his way up in that particular field, gaining insight into the good and bad elements of each sector and the hurdles encountered, enabling him to have a broad perspective of the industry itself. Taking everything he has learnt and, in his words, ‘mashing it all together in his own proposition', Collabz was born. In our conversation, Louis touches on his decade in the industry,and the attributes he looks for when interviewing people to work for him or his clients, particularly discussing traits that perhaps are not always at the forefront of people's mind or interview preparation. He covers the best way to get in touch with a potential company or recruiter and why hiring feels like such a dysfunctional process to so many people. As always, CV's and LinkedIn profiles are a hot topic of conversation, with Louis giving his thoughts and tips to make yours stand out.  Louis brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the table in our conversation, and I love his openness to touch upon characteristics that he identifies as important in an interview that many may try to hide. For anyone looking to make an impact, this episode is definitely for you. Links that Louis mentions…Oversubscribed by Daniel Priestlyhttps://www.amazon.com/Oversubscribed-How-People-Lining-Business/dp/0857086197Traction by Gino Wickman https://www.amazon.com/Traction-Get-Grip-Your-Business/dp/1936661837Podcasts: Master of Scale (Reid Hoffmann), Knowledge for Men, How I Built ThisBlinkest https://www.blinkist.com/ (recommended by Andrew)Connect:You can connect with Louis on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louiscross/I hope you enjoy the episode, the best place to connect with me is on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jobsearchcoach/If you've enjoyed the podcast, it would be great if you could leave a review on iTunes, it's really appreciated :) Thanks,Andrew MacAskill

In this episode, I'm joined by an old colleague Laurent Bouvier, an executive coach currently working at The Zone. With Laurent's experience and expertise, this episode will be of particular interest to executives that are on the move.Laurent really cut his teeth in the telco industry, holding some very senior leadership roles, with probably the biggest telco in the world today. He then went on to scratch that entrepreneurial itch, having a couple of startups which proved to be good learnings, before becoming very much an executive coach that helps both businesses and individuals succeed.  During his work as an executive coach we collaborated whilst I was running an executive search business where Laurent became very much, in my view, the go to expert in the market in terms of helping newly placed leaders get up and running in their new roles.Within this episode, Laurent talks about his current role at The Zone, where they are trying to bring humanity back into the organisation and the challenges that they are facing. He discusses how senior leadership can be a lonely place, and how best to approach a new job role, whilst giving an insight into the importance for a recruiter to not only assess a candidate as an individual, but also how they will fit in with the team and community. He touches upon the three most common mistakes that people make in terms of their career in general, as well as giving us an insight into his favourite books and what skills he is looking to develop. Links that Laurent mentions…The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey https://www.amazon.com/Habits-Highly-Effective-People-Powerful/dp/0743269519The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor https://www.shawnachor.com/the-books/the-happiness-advantage/Connect:You can connect with Laurent on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurent-bouvier-9724589/I hope you enjoy the episode, the best place to connect with me is on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jobsearchcoach/If you've enjoyed the podcast, it would be great if you could leave a review on iTunes, it's really appreciated :) Thanks,Andrew MacAskill

Not a marketer by trade, but certainly one by action. In this episode, we sit down with Andrew MacKaskill and talk a fair bit about personal branding and how marketers need to work on their own if they are to influence others. We chat around the changing landscape of recruitment and how marketing is more and more now a driver of profit rather than an isolated department in the office. Also, some nuggets of career advice for anybody looking to make a move. As always, hat tip to the team at Paiger for sponsoring.

Slightly different episode this week as we was cut a bit short for time.   I'm joined by Andrew Macaskill for 20 minutes and we get straight into the good stuff.   Andrew has worked within the Recruitment Industry for over a decade in which he has climbed up the ranks within different agencies and is now the Managing Director of EO.   He has been a real innovator during his time within the industry and in my opinion one of the best when it comes to leveraging marketing to help him as a Recruiter.
