Broadcast recruitment and a deep dive on the hiring process with Phil Hodgetts.
Having known Phil for many years and with is larger than life character he seemed a natural fit to include on the schedule, I wanted somebody to talk about recruitment and with his outgoing character glad he agreed.
We talk about his early days as a 'journo' as he calls it, but he also talks about what he would do differently and advice for candidates to perfect that CV and how he helps coach for interviews. In the out takes his doorbell was going off, fluffed his lines and called me out on my CGI podcast studio pfft!
You can find out more about him and current jobs by going to caspianone-broadcast.com

- When did you realise you were destined for the media industry?
- Was there any flags or paths you followed that stand out

- Have you been through freelance, full time, academic circles
- are there any hard and fast rules for broadcast CV’s for different industry disciplines?
- do you get many companies who take apprentices or graduate schemes these days?

More information on the guest:
I began my career at Caspian One in 2009, working intensely across the full broadcast chain, delivering on both contract and permanent assignments.
Initially, my focus was targeted to distribution technologies, which as result, built solid grounding for the work I do today with Telco’s in Europe - operating in-and-around video content delivery. I have also worked closely alongside equipment manufacturers, product and technical sales candidates; and it’s this breadth of experience which has developed my unusual, rounded understanding of the industry’s people, products, workflows and technologies.
I’m a tenacious individual who is proud of my work and loyal to the people I support. My strengths also include the capability to identify, access and engage with candidates that have skills which are often in high, competitive demand.
