This week I’m joined by Khalifa Salim from THRYVE

He started working as an apprentice straight out of school, and has worked his way up from being a teenager in recruitment to a successful biller and team lead.

It was great to sit down with him and talk about his experiences in recruitment, life, leadership - and the future of his career.
