Recruitment Asia Pacific

So much to do..... So little time!


Hands up all those who feel this.... go on... I know you want to, or have wanted to in the past.

I have a problem.... which I am a little embarrassed to write about. For goodness sake I am a grown man, I should be able to work this stuff out.

My TO DO List has stretched amazingly, I swear when I left it the other day it was fine, quite happy swimming along, not a care in the world. Now, sitting here very late Friday night, I find I have a presentation to prepare for Wednesday, 5 performance reviews to write, A case study to prepare, a blog or 2 to write, further reviews and an idea I need to develop to present to our CEO next week. And here i am thinking I am a Recruitment Manager, where can I fit actual Recruitment into the day.

The scariest thing... there are things that should be on the TO DO list, which are yet to make it.....

"Really? POOR BABY! BIG DEAL! GET OVER IT"


Shouts my mirror as I was having a good hard look at myself. Lots of people are currently without work, my CEO so loving told me today that the Market Analysts asked him why he still had a Recruitment Team? So, you're a little busy? embrace it, own it, achieve it and move on!

My thoughts: Drop the interaction with social technology for a bit as it easily soaks loads of time up - just ask Paul Jacobs about this network and me about mine. Tools and references to help http://www.37signals.com/ have some nice productivity tools. Local company www.planhq.com for business planning (but maybe help with task management), and maybe some inspiration from this guy: http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/

#atcsyd Day 2.. The Awesomeness Returned!

Man what a day.... sorry, it's late I'm writing this, but I just arrived at home. (took a few more days, went back to work, and now finished this)

But back to the start of my day...

Great start... woke up without the sound of crying (I have young children... this is a perfect start of a day!)

Then... awesome breakfast provided by the #atcsyd guys (the…

Career Planning…. New Years Resolutions

For those who read my blog, you'll know I've recently changed jobs, and I've been pretty slack in posting here in the last year.  Some will say "again?" others have been congratulatory, I have to say it has been an interesting experience.  I'm 37 years old and I'm into my 5th professional job (not counting the moss farming, kitchen hand and service station attendant during University and high school).  Being the new boy again, facing those nerves of the unknown, will they like me? will I…
