Welcome to 2021. Well, we tried, we hoped and through the force of sheer will-power we’ve almost convinced ourselves….but it’s official, changing the last numeral in the date doesn’t actually change anything in real life. Wherever you are in the world you’re probably in some form of lockdown, and your own work situation has most likely been immeasurably transformed over the last 9 months or so.

However, we shouldn’t dismiss the impact will-power or positive thinking can have. If nothing else, we can view the start of a new year as an excuse to start afresh, to tackle new challenges and make this next day, week, month or quarter a positive one. We’re here to help with that.

The content below reflects what’s been on our minds and, unsurprisingly, much of it revolves around remote working, technology and interviewing in these strange times – but hopefully not any less interesting.

We do genuinely believe that 2021 will be a fantastic year and we look forward to working with you in the months ahead.
