Tell us a bit about your career to date and how you got into Recruitment.

I fell into recruitment quite young. I grew my career, followed my manager to Fetch, and developed my career from a Resourcer to Principal Consultant.

 

What’s your favourite thing about working at Fetch?

Definitely the culture, it's so much more than just Friday drinks. No matter what level you’re in and what part of your life, everyone is so warm, always willing to help, loves a bit of banter, and really wants the best for each other.

Beyond that, there are amazing incentives and a great commission structure (cause we’re all here to do well). There's flexibility and such an open-door environment. You’re always speaking to people who understand and listen with open ears.

 

What’s one thing you wish people knew about recruitment or your industry?

If you work with the right recruiter, you will honestly get so much benefit out of your job search. We genuinely care about our candidate's and clients' careers and value what we do so much.

 

#1 career highlight to date?

Being promoted to Principal Consultant a few months ago!

 

Your life mantra is / Your philosophy on life is / The words you live by are…

6 months of hard work puts you 5 years ahead!

 

Favourite song, band or musician? (Or genre of music)

I have the worst taste in music – I train to Hannah Montana at the moment!

 

If you were on death row, what would be your last meal?

Anyone who knows me, knows I can eat 10,000 calories in 15 minutes!

Golden Gaytime icecream, Sour Straps, Pods, pizza rolls, Daniel's Donuts, Macca's nuggets, garlic bread, sushi, HSP... I could go on for days!

 

Name three things you are grateful for right now.

  • The decent weather coming through

  • My mum that I facetime ten times a day

  • My pilates 5 am classes!  

 

Tell us a #FunFact about you!

I can eat a family Caramilk block of chocolate in under 30 seconds 😊 (I promise I go to the gym 6 times a week though)

 

One job I’m recruiting for RIGHT NOW is:

I’m honestly recruiting for anything in the Architecture Industry so please message me!
