The Leader of the Cat Pack...

As recruitment guru James Caan once said:

“Showing up every day isn't enough. There are a lot of guys who show up every day who shouldn't have showed up at all.

I come into the office every morning with lots of passion and drive in wanting to help candidates find their perfect job! Running the Temp Division here at Yellow Cat is incredibly fulfilling and really enjoyable! It’s a great feeling when you place someone in a contract – especially when it is their dream job!

This week at Yellow Cat HQ has been pretty hectic! We narrowly lost out to Barack Obama in the Presidential election. We felt that our candidate was great and had a fantastic CV; hopefully we can have another crack in 2012!

At Yellow Cat I also administer The Fantasy Cat Predictor. The Fantasy Cat Predictor is the game that tests your ability to predict the outcome of Barclays Premier League matches and is associated with the premierleague.com. I am proud to be the reigning Champion and won the League in 2007/08 by a resounding margin! I just hope Arsenal can follow suit and match my success.

At the moment we are currently in need of Customer Service Temps as people start their Christmas shopping; retail head offices will be getting busier and busier! Therefore it is my Temp Job Of The Week!

You must be happy to work within an inbound call centre taking approximately 100 calls per day from customers wishing to place orders, advising customers on product choices, liaising with stores and building relationships and locating items on main stock system. As the majority of your work is on the telephone, you must have an excellent phone manner and the ability to work in a pressurised environment. Good Keyboard and IT skills would also be preferable.

The candidate who receives the highest rated feedback from our clients during a particular month is entitled to a Top Cat Award – which is a £50 meal voucher to use in any restaurant in London as a thank you from Yellow Cat Recruitment! (Previous winners of the much sought after Top Cat Award includes...ME!)

To end every blog entry I will include a mind boggling riddle – the first person to email temps@yellowcatrecruitment.co.uk or call in with the correct answer will be entitled to a small prize!

“There are 7 girls on a bus, each girl has 7 backpacks. In each backpack, there are 7 big cats for every big cat there are 7 little cats Question: How many legs are there in the bus?"
