I haven’t come across an outsider to @theforage_ who has picked up the essence of what we’re building so quickly. The challenges, nuances, tensions and opportunity - all of it. Loved working on this with @sarthakgh

When co-creating content with employers to help candidates understand what a job is like, the challenge is to balance access with customization to expand reach usefulness @BrunskillTom tells me they have created a "career awareness" metric for that sarharibhakti.substack.com/p…

You *need* to know founder Tom Brunskill if you’re interested in #career mobility - he’s an expert @BrunskillTom Great interview by Sar. A few gems: “The recruitment process is broken. Rather than ‘hire then train,’ employers should use a ‘train then hire’ model.”
[New Post] My most comprehensive chat so far I have been following this Australian company for while now. Enjoyed investigating this multi-layered business that sits at the intersection of multiple trends & product approaches. I talked to @BrunskillTom sarharibhakti.substack.com/p…

This is the best investigative chat I have done so far I’m quite into the intersection of ideas at play here & have studied the market evolution deeply. Tom’s clinical in his thinking and I enjoyed nerding out! It’s a content biz that happens to help people get the right jobs!

Nothing like customer testimonials to show your company is really adding value. Couldn't be more excited to see that @Telstra's open access cyber security course on @theforage_ is getting even more usage than expected. linkedin.com/feed/update/urn…
