So as we reach the close of our 600 Interesting and Useful Things for Recruiters series we thought it might be nice to share some facts about ourselves. Alex Martin is the UK Recruiter Newsletter Editor and helps run in our technology showcase events. Here are her 10 interesting things:- I like to knit. A lot.
