🚀Alex Hutchings

Had an interesting one yesterday after a candidate call.

Part of our process is simple: after the call, go away, do your own research on the company, and send a short email confirming several key things including:

✔️Visa situation (if relevant)
✔️Highlighting any relevant experience(outside of what is listed on the resume)
✔️Why you’re actually interested in this role and company specifically

Takes ten minutes, max.

This isn’t us adding hoops for the sake of it. It’s about showing you’ve taken the time to think about the role, understand the business, and that you’re genuinely prepared to invest in the interview process.

Anyone can say “sounds great, send me over” on a call. But 23 years of doing this has taught me one thing: when someone is willing to put in a bit of work before we submit them, the dropouts decrease dramatically.

Which brings me back to the candidate. He said, “If they like my résumé, I’ll answer the questions.”

If you can’t spend ten minutes now, how on earth are you going to commit three hours to interviews?

And why should you get a free pass over the candidates who do put in the effort?

Maybe I’m old-school… or maybe expectations haven’t changed as much as people think.

Fair? Or am I being unrealistic?

Imagine a world without recruitment companies.

There’s a lot of noise out there about recruiters… but picture this for a second. No recruiters at all.

No one fighting your corner.
No one advising you on how to prep or perform in an interview.
No market insights.
No one pushing companies to move faster.
No one opening doors you didn’t even know existed.

And all of this, completely free of charge to the job seeker.

And here’s the big one:

No one moving jobs = far fewer opportunities for you to apply for.

Recruitment isn’t perfect; then again, what industry is?

But the next time you feel the urge to moan about recruiters, imagine the alternative.

A world with fewer chances, less movement, and no one in your corner.

We still have a long way to go as an industry, but the reason so many of us “career recruiters” are still here is because we adapt, we listen, and we actually know how to recruit. 💡

New ThinkData Podcast just dropped!

I sat down with Nell Meosky Luo , CEO & Co-Founder of Folia Health: The Home-Reported Outcomes Company, a company reshaping how chronic and rare conditions are understood by turning everyday patient experiences into structured, research-ready data.

We talk about:

 • The deeply personal story behind Folia
 • Why most EPRO tools miss the mark
 • How AI unlocks value only when the underlying data is high-quality
 • What scaling a mission-driven healthtech startup really looks like
 • And how Folia’s Mosaic platform is putting patients in control of research in a way we’ve never seen before

Folia is doing some incredible work in this space, and this conversation is full of insights for anyone working in AI, digital health, or patient-generated data.

Contrary to popular belief…

What you see on job boards is only a tiny fraction of what’s really happening in the market.

Most of the best roles never make it online.

Case in point:

This week, we took down two live roles because of the volume of irrelevant and in alot of cases, fake applicants. It became unmanageable and added zero value to the client or the candidates who actually fit.

At the same time, we’re running two highly sensitive, off-market searches that will never be advertised. 

These kinds of roles move quietly, through trusted networks, with people who understand the space.

And here’s the uncomfortable truth:

If you're seeing a wave of “too good to be true” roles posted every week by the same rogue recruiters… they probably are.(I can think of 1 company in particular that is advertising for a client we 100% know is NOT hiring)

And to all those recruiters who are still posting fake jobs for clicks, you’re part of the problem. It damages trust, wastes everyone’s time, and sets the industry back. Do better, it’s 2025

So here’s the real takeaway:

If a specialist recruiter isn’t plastering LinkedIn with open roles, it doesn’t mean they’re not busy.

It usually means they’re running real searches, for real clients, with real outcomes, quietly, intentionally, and off-market.

Work with recruiters who live and breathe your niche.

That’s where the actual opportunities are.

If you’re going to send us a fake resume, here’s a tip for next time: don’t list a company we already recruit for. 🤦‍♂️

And if I ask three times for the name of your line manager, “I can’t remember” really isn’t the answer.

The plot thickened when I went to report the profile to the LinkedIn police… only to be met with this 👇

Recruitment in 2025: the gift that keeps on giving. 🤯

If you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backward.

As Dataworks hit 4 years, it felt like the right moment to take a hard look at who we are now, what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what we want to be known for in the next chapter.

Step one is a completely refreshed website.

Clear. Concise. Built for where we’re heading.

💡More real-world events.
💡More content.
💡More podcasts.
💡More opportunities for our candidate community.

And far less reliance on this platform alone. If LinkedIn is your only talent source, you’re already behind.

Big announcements coming. Stay tuned. 🚀
