This is a superb tool for anyone needing to understand the mechanics of the recruitment process and a great resource for any business needing to recruit, whether seeking senior executives, scarce talent or high volume resource." * Graham Cove, Director of WiFi, Everything Everywhere *
"An accessible and comprehensive guide for non-professional recruiters, this book highlights not only how to go it alone but when to call in the experts!

It's an indispensable help for everyone who needs to get recruitment right first time." * Ann Swain, Chief Executive, APSCo (Association of Professional Staffing Companies) *
