BEST MOMENTS
"People in the UK use the term headhunter because they know if someone calls them up and they say that they're a headhunter, what they do, which is to basically work for companies to find top executives for them."
"If you want to be found, so if you're a candidate and you want people to find you, to head something for good positions, they need to be able to quickly look at your profile and work out what you do."
"You just want people to believe that when they've got a problem, you might be able to help them solve that problem."
"When you've got your own business unless you're going to pay loads and loads of money to other people to do things you should be able to do yourself, you have to know about finance, marketing, sales, everything, everything, everything, operations."
"Qualifications and university is just a waste of time."
