    A bit late, but better late than never!

    November saw Pulse Recruitment win some exciting new Accounts that are setting up shop here in Australia. This included a Car Park comparison site for travellers who were looking for their boots on the ground here in Australia.

    The role presented an exciting challenge for someone looking for an adventure and the candidate that was placed has hit the ground running and signed up his first client this week.
