Dear ,

If you have been on BookMachine this month you will have seen a whole heap of tips from a range of experts, all designed to help you excel at communicating online.

Today we would like to share a final blog post, this time linked to recruiting online, and a live expert interview which will take place on Wednesday lunchtime.



How to make online recruitment work - for candidates and interviewers


Suzy Asbury


Inspired Selection have been doing a brilliant job of keeping us updated with opportunities, so we wanted to find out a bit more about their own experience of managing this as a business, and to ask for some tips for succeeding at interviews – for both candidates and interviewers.




Tania O'Donnell


Wednesday 29th July
1:00 – 1:30 p.m.


On Wednesday you can join us for a quick-fire chat with Tania, Executive Editor at Arcturus Publishing. Find out how she first came to enjoy public speaking, how she’s adapted her work for communicating online, and her top tips for getting started.
