Guys I need some advice!!!!!
I have been a technical recruiter for over 6 years, for the last 5 years I have regularly billed in excess of £150k pa. My core market has been Maintenance Engineering and Quality.
This year I have only generated £50k!!!!! I feel physically sick and am seriously considering changing my market.
Has anyone got any suggestions as to what markets they consider to be bouyant and fluid?
Thank you all in advance"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
