The deadline is midnight Friday to submit entries for the prestigious awards for the entire recruitment community, recognising outstanding achievements by agencies and in-house recruiters.

The winners will be announced at what promises to be a glittering event on Thursday 3 May at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel. Click here to see highlights from last year’s Awards.

Category sponsors for the 2018 Awards include 6CATS International, Class People and CV-Library. The Awards are supported by the Recruitment & Employment Confederation.

The Awards ceremony itself is the final stage of a process that starts with a judging day, sponsored by Irwin Mitchell, followed by a shortlist party on 29 March, sponsored by NatWest. Good luck to all entrants, and we look forward to seeing you on 3 May. Further information about the Awards, the various categories and how to enter can be found at our dedicated Recruiter Awards website.
