Phoenixing

The REC is inviting Government to take a tough stance on Phoenixing as highlighted in Recruitment Consultant Magazine today.

I remember an REC event last year where some senior figures in the recruitment industry were laughing about how this was how they had made their money in the sector, so this practice seems to be quite common and at all levels in the industry.

I left the conversation at the point this was raised because I have no time for people who create other's misery and as an ex employee of the REC, I like them, would love to see this stamped out and those who have profited exposed.

Well done REC, cast the net far and wide and look into all the nooks and crannies.
