Trent Cotton joined the HR industry in 2004 after working as a sales leader within the Financial Services Industry for eight years. I spent my first couple of years in HR trying to fit in before I found my voice. I chose leverage all of the things I once hated about HR to transform my career to become a consultant and invaluable partner to the businesses I support.

My passion is to lead, innovate and engage the recruiting industry to change how both large and small businesses value the Talent Acquisition discipline. This blog reaches thousands of readers and provides unique insights on a range of recruiting topics.
