In February 2010 I was interviewed by Dee Allen from Redmos at TruLondon. We spoke about my career in recruitment, the highs and lows, and what advice I would give aspiring recruiters.
As I set out on my job hunt, I thought it would provide visitors to the blog, and hopefully potential employers, with a unique opportunity to find out some more about me.
Whilst discussing highlights, you’ll hear me talk of making my biggest ever fee in 2009 with ‘no sales necessary’…this was important to me as it underlined the importance of relationships, reputations and network to and how they come together to deliver real value. After more than 20 years in the industry, I feel that this is now more relevant than ever, as clients look for some real added value and insight from us, and a different approach to business development.
Hope you enjoy the interview…

Mervyn, you know you changed my view of recruiters and you have it totally right. It’s all about the relationships and that gets overlooked too many times. I wish you all the luck there is in the job search and whoever you choose to work with is extremely lucky as you will bring that vision and forward thinking to their organisation!
