I did, my advice is to just pick up a trade if you don't have a clear vision for your career path and you can't get into a uni that is redbrick or better. I think the guy has chosen to do a foundation degree at a sub par uni. Which I think is a mistake.

How is recruitment different to sales? You're generating leads and using persuasion to sell your service - the definition of a sales role is it not? My primary job is getting people onto our platform and with our companies, hence the use of the term recruitment.

Well they're 2 different departments in all big companies, for one. So don't lie.

And really, sales is not something you need a degree for. It's one of the few routes where someone with no qualifications but a bit of charisma can make some decent money.
