In my case, chemistry was at the heart of the recruitment company I started nearly 5 years ago.
My degree was in organic chemistry, the main purpose of the degree was to make a chemical called Chrysanthemic acid. Now, you weren’t just measured on succeeding in making it, but on the purity of the final chemical that was made, as well as the % amount that you made from the starting chemicals.
This meant that you had to work out the processes needed to make this more effective – i.e. you needed a more refined process.
Refined: ADJECTIVE
“Developed or improved so as to be precise or subtle.”
When launching my business, people were always saying how poor recruitment firms were and that they didn’t do a great job. I didn’t want my firm to be perceived in the same light.
I took the decision to launch a business that would continually try to improve and refine what it did until it became refined (refind!)
Now, unfortunately, someone had taken the web domain I wanted, so it made sense to think of an alternative, hence the name refind (Well we do find candidates after all.)
And so re:find was born…
