Why work in a WeWork
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But you can recruit from anywhere. Nonsense Just give me a phone and a laptop and I’m sorted. So how can WeWork really make a difference to recruitment? Apart from benefiting from Central Locations so that candidates and clients are only a stone’s throw away from you, you’ll also benefit from the WeWork Community. This includes networking events and a messaging platform to connect your business with sector experts… And maybe find your next candidate. With free beer, free coffee, free cocktails, free breakfasts… and other free stuff, WeWork is a great environment to spend the long hours of recruitment in.
