Tech is a hot space for careers, isn’t it?

Unsurprisingly, A LOT of people want to break into this space and are wondering: “how can I make it happen?”

This is exactly what we are discussing with my brilliant guest - Fabian Fuchs - in the latest Shameless Careers episode.

Fabian started his career in consulting at BCG, then joined a food delivery scale up in Germany only to see this space SKYROCKET during the pandemic.

Following a bunch of acquisitions the company became part of a scale up Just Eat where Fabian built a stellar career - progressing from Head of Operations in Germany to Chief of Staff to the COO, and then to Director roles in France and London.

In this episode we are talking about:

• How to choose the right tech company and build a successful career there
• The 3 traits hiring managers often look for when interviewing people for tech roles
• Why consultants often excel in tech - and how to compete if you’re not one
• And (my favourite) why being part of a tech company can feel like a Netflix series 🍿

If you want to break into tech - or know someone who does - this episode is for you (and for that friend of yours!)

In this Shameless Careers episode, haroon (LBS MBA, ex-startups) shares how two failed probations and years of shame finally made sense after a dual adult autism & ADHD diagnosis - opening the door to self-acceptance, self-awareness, and real career purpose.

In this candid, emotional episode, we talk about:

- What it’s like to keep hearing the feedback that you “have flashes of brilliance, but your behaviour is erratic and it's too much to have to manage you”

- The adult autism & ADHD diagnosis: the two-hour cry, relief, and self-compassion

- Neurodiversity at work: why some brains may thrive in chaos, but struggle with routine

- Discovering purpose: haroon’s pivot to a creative career - where his brain truly thrives

- Life post the creative pivot: financial realities, the long game and the power of seizing the day

This episode is a reminder that we’re all wired differently; that some careers may fit our brains better than others; that raising awareness of neurodivergence matters; and that the most important thing is to be kind - to others and to yourself.
