HARRISON PURSEY urge candidates to register
Harrison Pursey is urging candidates not to solely rely on checking our current jobs page - the turn around on briefs is so quick at the moment that within a week a job offer can be made which includes first and second interviews. The process can happen so quickly that 80% of the time we do not get the chance to advertise. It seems that candidates are only applying for jobs that they see advertised ....they do not realise they are missing out by not registering with Harrison Pursey earlier !
Please do not miss your opportunity - call us ASAP and get registered for permanent, contract and temporary assignments

paws for thought ..........
It is a strange thing, love. Nothing but love has made the dog lose his wild freedom, to become the servant of man. D H Lawrence
With eye upraised, his master’s look to scan, The joy, the solace and the aid of man; The rich man’s guardian, and the poor man’s friend. The only creature faithful to the end. George Crabbe
There is no faith which has never yet been broken, except that of a truly faithful dog. Konrad Lorenz
I think I could turn and live with animals, they are so placid and self-contained. Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things. Walt Whitman
In the beginning god created man, but seeing him so feeble, he gave him the dog. Toussenel
No man can be condemned for owning a dog. As long as he has a dog, he has a friend; and the poorer he gets the better friend he is. Will Rogers
Great men have great dogs. Otto Von Bismarck
In life the firmest friend. The first to welcome, foremost to defend. Whose honest heart is still his master’s own. Who labors, fights, lives, breathes for him alone. Lord Byron
Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends. Alexander Pope
Living with a dog is easy – like living with an idealist. H L Menken
The reason why a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue. Annonymous
Dogs are the only creatures gifted to serve us beyond the call of duty. C W Meisterfield
DOG – A kind of additional or subsidiary deity designed to catch the overflow and surplus of the world’s worship. Ambrose Bierce
I think we are drawn to dogs because they are the uninhibited creatures we might be if we weren’t certain we knew better. George Bird Evans
Dogs never lie about love. Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson

NEW CODE OF PRACTICE LAUNCHED
Harrison Pursey help lead the way with a new code of practice launched by the REC (Recruitment and Employment Confederation) for the Marketing, Media and Communications sector, to help and advise candidates, clients and recruitment agencies.
The aim of the code is to set a standard that professional recruitment agencies will aspire to reach and to help stamp out unethical practice and behaviour in the recruitment industry.
There are three parts to the code; one is a Code of Practice for recruitment agencies and the other two are intended as guidance for clients and candidates. Harrison Pursey was one of a small group of agencies involved in the formation and development of the codes. ‘We fully support any initiative that will help to raise standards and endorse the agencies that work to high professional standards. The new codes will give candidates and clients confidence that they can expect a high standard of conduct and service if they choose an MMC member agency’ says Barbara Harrison.
If you would like a copy of either the client or candidate guidelines, please email Barbara at barbarah@harrisonpursey.co.uk
