This week I’m joined by Melissa Houghton from Oscar.

She started working at Oscar immediately after graduating, and over the last eight years has worked her way up to running the permanent division there.

It was great to sit down with her and discuss all things recruitment: client management, the power of persistence and of course - managing teams.
