Second-chance hiring: the talent most recruiters skip

I am openly a second-chance employer. I believe people the system wrote off — for illness, redundancy, burnout, or a conviction — are frequently the most focused, loyal and capable people you can hire.

I put that into practice through a dedicated partnership with The Green Collar, a social enterprise founded by Stu Holmes. The Green Collar isn't my business; the partnership simply lines up with the way I already operate and evaluate human potential.

If you only hire the obvious candidates, you'll only build obvious teams.

If that resonates — as a hiring manager or as someone rebuilding a career — it's a conversation worth having.
