Thank you for your feedback - I am glad you're enjoying your time with Hays as an associate recruitment consultant. Unfortunately working long hours are very common in recruitment especially when you first start in our business because you are building your business within ours. We do know it pays off though as you would have seen around you so I look forward to hearing about your promotion to consultant, senior consultant and beyond. Jenna Alexander
