Business Without Bullsh-t

Corrine chats about the effects of AI and corporate bureaucracy on recruitment and how candidates need to improve on selling themselves. We also unpack what's missing from the hiring process and why it's important for employees to make themselves visible in the workplace. And Corrine explains why she thinks posting personal stuff on Linkedin qualifies for the big bin of bullshit.

That's why the BBC dubbed Corrine as the "career guru". She's written best-sellers “You’re Hired! How to write a brilliant CV” and “Career Coach” has appeared regularly on TV and writes for the Guardian.
