It’s an experience that you may have had more than once with Recruitment Firms – being presented with a seemingly amazing candidate who has a track record in your sector, and who seems to be able to explain what your business needs for success and what they will do to bring you that success.

Even thousands of years ago members of the Roman Army were gifted something special upon retirement. These days, retiring military servicemen and servicewomen can be just about as difficult to buy for as any other person, but this time you are dealing with someone who most probably is very set in their ways and very firmly know their likes and dislikes, especially the things they dislike! That results in a pretty tough challenge when it comes to buying them something fulfilling for their retir... (read more) Author: Rob Haigh

261. Turning Lorry Drivers Green September 27, 2017 In any industry, everyone from top management down should endeavour to engage in a regular programme of self-improvement or training in order to be at the top of their game. In the transport industry, particularly for a lorry driver, there are actually certain legislative requirements that need to be undertaken to remain compliant. However, there are other initiatives that, while voluntary, are highly desirable for a lorry driver to take part in. One new government training programme is set on teaching UK hauliers to drive in a more eco-friendly manner by being less aggressive on the roads. He... (read more) Author: Laura Jeeves

262. Lorry Drivers' Top Bugbears on the Road September 27, 2017 Due to their presence on the roads, hardworking lorry drivers who travel the length and breadth of the country doing delivery work are often, and quite unfairly, at the receiving end of complaints from other motorists.

264. UK Road Network Upgrades: What to Expect September 27, 2017 This summer, the Government published a programme of planned upgrades to the UK road network which will cost £6.1 billion.

Projected improvements to the transport infrastructure that is a haulier’s office space are of utmost importance to us. Today, I’m going to take a closer look at the details of this new scheme and what it means for HGV drivers. The mentioned sum of money is going to be used to help create a new MRN, or major road network. In good news for hauliers, one aim of the schem... (read more) Author: Laura Jeeves

Post-Brexit Britain: Delivery Work in Northern Ireland September 27, 2017 With Brexit making daily headlines, the Irish border problem is recognised as one of particular importance and complexity.

The Current Situation Thanks to the Good Friday Agreement there are no security stops or checks along the 500km borderline between Northern Ireland and Ireland. Goods pass freely along the 250 roads which run through the boundary, making trade easy. In a recent... (read more) Author: Laura Jeeves

267. 5 Types Of Job Aplicant You May Unjustly Ignore September 25, 2017 Hiring for almost any position is difficult and time-consuming.

That, in turn, means you could be overlooking some genuinely great candidates. Here are five types of applicant about whom you may ask: “are they necessarily so bad?” 1.

Indeed, it may be hard for them to appreciate the job description’s continued relevance when they come to Recruit Staff.

274. Retirement: A Natural Evolution of Career Development September 13, 2017 Over the past few years, our career coaching practice has been attracting a growing percentage of clients who want to talk about retirement planning – not just career planning. I have wondered why this is. Is it because people are becoming more aware, educated and savvy about the subject of retirement in general? Is it because my colleagues and I are getting older; so we are naturally drawing an older client demographic? Is it because some people simply have more options to consider, with the stock market (and some investment portfolios) reaching record highs? Or is it because I have been pond...
