#088 - Tips for Navigating the Job Hunt with Rhys Powell

The job hunt is on! With so many people looking to change things up with work, whether it be a new role, a new company, remote work - you name it - we decided it was time to talk a little about the Job Hunt.

This week, I.T veteran and long-standing Pybites Community Member, Rhys Powell joins me (Julian!) to share some tips around searching and applying for jobs these days.

Rhys brings a wealth of experience from both sides of the fence as someone seeking a change in I.T and also as the Hiring Manager.

In this casual, fun and lively discussion, Rhys shares his tips on:

• Identifying the right company for you
• Challenging yourself to just get in there and apply
• Thinking through your personal values
• Tackling your job interview
• Questions to ask in your interview
• and more.
