In this episode our hosts Tiana and Sheryl are joined by guests Siji Onabanjo, Linda Begnor and Rob Berkeley to delve into the question of whether it's really "who you know" or "what you know" that matters most when it comes to making it in your career. Young people trying to navigate the job market are constantly bombarded with advice about networking, building relationships, and leveraging connections. But does that mean that your skills and talents don't matter as much? Is it really possible to make it based on social capital alone, or is that just a myth perpetuated by those in positions of power? Tune in as we share our own experiences, talk to experts in the field, and explore the nuances of this complex issue.HostsTiana Holgatehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/tianaholgate/Sheryl Millerhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/coachedbysheryl/GuestsSiji Onabanjohttps://www.linkedin.com/in/sijionabanjo/Linda Begnorhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/linda-begnor-baaaaa81/Dr Rob Berkeley MBEhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-berkeley-mbe-a2b91618/http://www.blkoutuk.com/This Podcast is brought to you by Evenfields Careers, a grassroots organisation from the West Midlands using diversity recruitment and communications to help job seekers from diverse communities, particularly black and ethnic minorities.
