On my recent trip to Portland I spoke with Sudeep in Byways and Regan Dekoning at Red Star. Regan was a recruitment person at Wieden + Kennedy in Portland for many years and she's recently left to start her own head-hunting business. She's placing a lot of planners at the moment and she offers some really good advice, especially for junior people, on how to do a resume, do an interview and get a job.
She's one of the smartest and nicest people you could ever hope to meet and her guidance seems really sound to me. If you're looking for recruitment help she gives her contact details at the end of the audio. It's about 11 minutes and about 11MB.
I don't seem to have a picture of Redstar so that's a picture of a red star, from National Geographic.
Hi Russell
Thanks for posting the blog with Regan. Very informative.
I tried to get in touch with Regan at ext797. I probably have the wrong email. If possible could you forward it to me. I am seeing it as [email protected] but that isn't working....:(
thanks
