With Halloween and Firework night over, the shops are rapidly filling with Christmas goodies and the annual debate around looking for a new role at this time of year begins!

So much of the country has been caught up this weekend in a huge issue; no not Brexit but who to believe Coleen Rooney or Rebekah Vardy?

As I walked to our new office this morning, my phone was repeatedly bleeping. Rescuing it from the depths of my bag, I discovered that Linkedin had kindly reminded everyone that it is 26 years this week – just writing that is scary -  that I took the plunge and set up The Media Exchange.  So I thought I’d share a little about what it’s really like to run your own show for such a long time!

The Media Exchange is hiring - we are looking for a future recruitment superstar to join our successful team!

For the third in our series of Industry Immersion Sessions we welcomed Terry Hornsby, Director of Digital Solutions, from Reach. He talked to us about the impact of GDPR on Programmatic, the Trinity Mirror acquisition of Northern & Shell and merging to become Reach and finally what the ever changing world of digital means for candidates.
