Well this week I have been playing branch manager as I cover for my VP as he is off on holidays. Quickly I am learning more and more about the industry and what it takes to run a branch of a staffing firm on a daily basis.
It was not what I thought it would be.
The biggest challenge has certainly been managing my time accordingly. I still have my usual recruiting duties to attend to – which includes two of the most difficult positions I have ever been assigned to – on top of all the other things that are coming up along the way.
I could get used to this though. I enjoy being the go-to guy…
