Sharing my experiences with job hunting in the UK tech industry
Introduction
On average, people in the UK tech industry change jobs every two years. Having had some experience myself of the difficulties around navigating the recruitment space, I thought I would provide some insights and tips around things I have found useful. These include details such as:
- Defining your ideal job role, and what you want from it
- Self promotion, including how to put together your CV and portfolio of work
- Making applications to adverts, and keeping track of which applications you have and have not been successful in, and following up those you haven’t heard from
- Tips around how best to present yourself at interviews, from screener calls through to face-to-face interviews
