I’m joined by my good friend Quentin Laporte, a recruitment expert who co-founded his own company, Linko. We dive into his journey from IT recruitment, specializing in web development, to launching a recruitment firm that focuses on HR information systems (HRIS). Quentin shares insights into the recruiting process, how recruiters juggle hundreds of candidates at once, and the challenges of starting a company in a niche market. If you’ve ever wondered how recruiters operate behind the scenes, what it’s like to negotiate salaries and manage clients, or you’re curious about the future of recruitment in an AI-driven world, this episode is for you! Make sure to follow Careers Are Weird on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and YouTube, and don’t forget to show Quentin’s company, Linko, some love on LinkedIn.  New episodes are out every Wednesday, so until then - Stay Weird and Stay Ambitious, my friends✌🏾 Connect with Quentin on Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/quentinlaporte/ Follow Linko: https://www.linkedin.com/company/linko-it/ Submit questions & stories for the pod! - https://forms.gle/Yuri4hvnP8zpiND7A
