Matched for the job

Melissa Norman: “We are seeing a mismatch in the job market in terms of qualifications and available positions. Jobseekers, especially fresh graduates, face difficulty in finding work that is related to what they have studied, necessitating them to take up part-time jobs or full-time employment in fields unrelated to what they had studied."

HAVING built a long career in a multinational recruitment firm, it may seem like a natural step for Melissa Norman to carve out her own hiring company to begin the next phase of her journey.

But Melissa says that was never really part of her plan. Striking out on her own was not something she had previously envisioned for herself.
