Let’s tell you our
Wonderful
story
Our Story
With unmatched, in-job, and real-world industry experience (from entry level to CEO), we have sat on all sides of the table (from candidate to hiring manager and now recruiter/trainer).
After hiring, training, and developing some of the finest talent in the creative industries, we absolutely loved almost all of it! The part that we didn’t love (and we know we aren’t alone in this) is where our mission started. . .
As hiring managers, we didn’t feel good about using recruitment consultants; when most of the time we were just left with a stack of CVs and no direction or support. The entire process was frustrating and often felt transactional, rather than a value solution.
As candidates, hired or not, we felt like commodities with our value determined solely on how likely we were to get ‘the’ job.
As employees, we struggled to connect learning, mentoring, and coaching take-aways to our role within our industry.
It was (and is) very clear to us that there is a lack of opportunity for interesting people from different backgrounds, who may think that they don’t fit an industry employee mould.
We can’t solve all this completely by ourselves. But we will try to offer practical solutions that create change so that the future looks more wonderful for everyone!
Our Mission
So, simply put, we started Wonderful Recruitment & Development because we want to be the partner for hiring managers, candidates, and employees that we always wanted.
