Your Career Reset: What to Know, Do & Avoid in 2025.

In this power-packed episode of Snap Talk, Venetia is joined by Jessi Tomkinson, Managing Director of the Humankind Group, to talk careers with clarity, from both sides of the hiring table. Whether you're hiring, job-hunting, or just feeling career-confused, this one’s for you.

We unpack:
- The biggest trend in recruitment today, and what it means for your next hire or career move.
- The CV of the future: What to put in, what to leave out, and what makes you unmissable.
- How to compete in the global talent war, yes, especially when we are competing in dollars and pounds.
- What top performers do differently in interviews and online.
- How to bounce back from rejection, redundancy, or a career crash without losing your confidence.
Plus: the LinkedIn hacks, salary myths, interview dos and don’ts, and the career lies we’ve been sold for too long.

If you're asking, "What now?" or "How do I stand out?", Jessi’s insights, knowledge, and experience will benefit you way beyond just great information.

We talk truth, career tactics and all things talent.
