So, as part of our 600th Issue celebrations we’ve decided to share (over the course of the rest of the year!) 600 Interesting and Useful Things for Recruiters. Despite 15 years running the UK Recruiter community and 7 before that in an actual recruitment business Louise accepts that we can't stretch to the full 600 by ourselves. If you fancy being the author of one of these (in return you’ll get fame and glory - and full credit), please have a look at some of the categories we want to cover and email Louise to see what categories are still available.

Also this week, Louise has been sent a copy of a brand new recruitment book; How to Recruit (& Retain) The Right Staff. The author, Graham Martin founder & MD of Orchard Recruitment, has agreed to give away a few copies to recruiters who will share their thoughts. For more information see Louise's Blog.
