The latest Talent Sessions Bytesize episode is now live - and this time Iโ€™m joined by the brilliant Danny Stockwell Talent Manager from FX Digital (someone Iโ€™ve known a while, and weโ€™ve been meaning to do this for ages).
We go deep into whatโ€™s really happening in todayโ€™s tech hiring market, how to stand out when everyoneโ€™s shouting, and why bringing energy and honesty to hiring still cuts through.
Oh - and did I mention heโ€™s also a DJ and music producer? ๐ŸŽงSo yes, it wouldโ€™ve been rude not to use one of his own tracks for the show intro - and it bangs.
Raw convo, no fluff.

We talk talent, tech, real recruitment challenges and what hiring managers actually want to see.
One for the job seekers, hiring leads, and anyone who loves real talk with rhythm.
๐ŸŽง Now streaming on all platforms.
