The TechGuide podcast was created to make all of the opportunities in tech accessible to a wide audience. From fintech and marketing to design and artificial intelligence, we talk to people working in all kinds of interesting roles and jobs across the tech spectrum.
Whether you are a student trying to figure out what kind of degree to get or someone who is mid-career looking to pull off a pivot into tech (or into a different part of tech), this podcast is for you.
We talk to seasoned operators, people just starting out, workers who are part of name brand companies and people pushing the boundaries at small startups. Although the experiences and backgrounds are all different, one thing that all of our guests have in common is that they can talk about the things that have worked and not worked for them on their tech career journey.
Whether it’s tactical advice on how to land a first job, or places to look for good internships, or the value of personal branding at all phases of career development, all of our guests are on the show to provide guidance, insights, and hopefully a little bit of inspiration.
The podcast is a standalone project, but it can also be used in companion with all of the career guides, certification overviews, degree information, and resources on TechGuide so that listeners can learn and then take action.
The TechGuide podcast is like having your own personal career coach in your corner.
