#86: What Job Seekers Need to Know with Brent Pollington

The HR Mentor

In this episode, I sit down for a conversation with Brent Pollington, the owner of a successful and award-winning recruitment firm in Vancouver, BC, called Express Employment Professionals. With a company track record of placing over 15,000 people with more than a thousand companies, Brent brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to The HR Mentor that will enlighten new grads and seasoned HR professionals alike.

During our conversation, Brent shares what a recruitment company does—and perhaps more importantly, what it does not do. We also discuss how to effectively work with a recruiter to enhance your career prospects. Plus, Brent will share some valuable advice for job seekers about refining their resumes, optimizing their LinkedIn profiles, and much more.

If you’re interested in understanding the true role of recruitment firms in your job search or seeking tips on how to navigate the job market, this conversation will be well worth your time.
