The latest Talent Sessions Bytesize episode is now live - and this time Iโm joined by the brilliant Danny Stockwell Talent Manager from FX Digital (someone Iโve known a while, and weโve been meaning to do this for ages).
We go deep into whatโs really happening in todayโs tech hiring market, how to stand out when everyoneโs shouting, and why bringing energy and honesty to hiring still cuts through.
Oh - and did I mention heโs also a DJ and music producer? ๐งSo yes, it wouldโve 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.
๐ง Now streaming on all platforms.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
Itโs 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off Americaโs third largest cash heist. But itโs all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular โol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
