Managing Director - Executive Recruitment

Jan 2015Jan 2016 · 1 yr · Singapore · Hybrid

  • Launching my own recruitment firm targeting commodity trading industry across the globe marked my debut as an entrepreneur. Initially, the business soared, generating close to $400K in the first quarter alone, with projections nearing the million-dollar mark within the inaugural year.
  • However, an unexpected downturn hit during the second quarter when oil prices plummeted, causing a significant decline in commodity trading overnight. Faced with this abrupt shift, I made the decision to prioritize my personal well-being and took a hiatus to travel the world, recharging before embarking on my next career move.
