Episode description
My guest today is Hung Lee. He’s the writer and curator of Recruiting Brainfood, a newsletter read by nearly 30,000 people interested in recruitment, talent, and HR, among other things. He also writes This Week In Recruitment and hosts a popular job board.
Hung has worked in recruitment for over twenty years and knows the market inside out. As well as dedicating time to saving his readers time – by finding the most relevant and interesting news for them each week – he’s a great example of how when you love a subject and spend time really thinking about it, you can create huge value for people while having fun along the way.
We talked about the future of offices, including whether businesses would ultimately all adopt some form of hybrid work or if there’s a possibility some will throw their hat in for fully office-based on remote future.
We also discussed why flexibility is a critical requirement for most candidates in the market and the essential skills we should ensure we’re proficient in if we want to compete in the job market over the next five to ten years.
Finally, we discuss the importance of becoming an expert in your niche and why successfully launching a digital content strategy for yourself, including growing a newsletter, you need to combine intrinsic motivation and passion with hard work and a thick skin.
