I think in today's market, more so than ever, I think this has always been important, but more so than ever, it's relationship builders. It's people that can go out and build strong relationships with clients and candidates alike. And I think if you couple that with strong work ethic, prioritisation, organisation, and just consistency in what they do, I personally believe that's the recipe in today's market. It's changed in terms of recruitment used to be very transactional, ones and twos, you know, get your numbers across the line, and now it's really looking at selling, proper solution selling to clients. And I think that takes a slightly different kind of beast of person or skill set in order to deliver it.
