Jay O’Brien worked for Hays, a global recruitment company for over 13 years. Then, he decided to spin his career completely on it’s head and go and work for privately owned specialist, Redpath Partners. Every element of his day-to-day worklife would now be completely different! Or would it? We chat with Jay around his reasoning to immerse himself into a completely different working culture and environment, the pro’s and the con’s, the key differences, and ultimately, if the move has paid off. This career pathway (from “global” to privately owned specialist) is not unique to Jay. Many have done it before, and many will do it in the future. So we were grateful to Jay for talking us through his own personal experience, in the hope that it can help others considering such a move. Hope you enjoy this weeks episode of Recruitment Journeys.
