Welcome to Episode 4 of the 180DC Podcast! The pleasure this week extends to Dhanish Semar, a current Strategy Manager at SEEK and part-time MBA student at Melbourne Business School.
From India, to New Zealand, to Melbourne. From engineering, to tech consulting, to strategy. From writing articles in a blog column, to collaborating with some of the biggest names in the Esports world. We chat with Dhanish about how one goes from working in the gaming industry during their university life to how one may pave the way for a career in consulting and strategy. The origin stories that went from playing League of Legends to meeting Faker (as Dhanish quotes: ‘Is the Michael Jordan of the gaming world’), we’ll cover it all as we think of those who resonate with Dhanish’s journey.
Tune in this week for our final reeling question, where we ask Dhanish about the hardest interview question he’s ever been asked during a job interview. His answer will surprise many of you so make sure not to miss this episode!
