We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been shortlisted in the Best Specialist Job Board category in the 2015 Global Recruiter awards. The awards cover both on- and offline recruitment, with 15 categories including ‘Best Permanent Consultant’, Best Newcomer’ and ‘Best Marketing Campaign, to name a few.
The awards are judged by a panel of industry experts, including representatives from APSCo, RIDA and UK Recruiter, among others. They’re a difficult bunch to impress, so we’re proud to have made it to the final stage.
The Best Specialist Job Board category seeks to reward job boards for their technical innovation, targeted content, and success in attracting and retaining users. Having embraced mobile technology, our recently launched responsive site will no doubt have helped us get the finalist nod. We’re also the market-leading job board catering solely for the sales industry, so all our users know they are only going to see jobs in the wonderful world of sales with us.
The winners are announced on 25th June at a ceremony at Cafe de Paris in London, so we’re keeping our fingers well and truly crossed! Ours is a tough category made up of some fantastic sites, so it’s great just to be nominated alongside them. We’ll let you know how we get on!

Sales Advice: Preventing buyers’ resistance to sales people
What can sales professionals do to at least lower the resistance barriers to making a choice? We may not have caused that resistance ourselves, but we certainly have to face up to it every day.
