We're winding the clock back this week as we revisit our first ever guest Ayush Roy to hear about his new job in sports journalism! We also get a CV robot comparison and test Ayush's ability to tell real news stories from fake ones!

As a new cohort of journalists graduate and enter the jobs market, the gang thought they’d delve into the archive to share an advice pack episode to help those looking for work!

Original episode description: This week we're joined by the brilliant Freelancing for Journalists podcast to get their two cents on how to make it as a freelancer. We cover the whole process, from how to create a brand for yourself to pitching stories to editors. We also discuss pivoting as a butler, and scrutinise their CVs! How will Emma and Lily score on our leaderboard?

Ca va? Ca va. Ca va? Ca va! Our good friend Hugo Varley is on the show this week, talking sports journalism and what he's learned since qualifying a year ago. George has been photosynthesising in his warm flat, and Oli's been doing interviews in his swimwear! All in an episode of Jobs Bored, the young journalists' podcast.

This week we're talking the launch of GB News and the opportunities it can give young journalists, and we're joined by Kate Relton to hear about her foray into the world of music journalism, as well as her experience in social media marketing and how that's helping her. We've also subjected her CV to our fearsome robotic gauntlet - how will it get on?

This week we've got Jo Lisney on the podcast - part of the new cohort of recent graduates looking for jobs in journalism! After persuading her that she will eventually get a job and all is not completely hopeless, we discuss how she and other wide-eyed grads are feeling about the jobs market. 

This week on Jobs Bored Ellie Tivey is here to talk working not one, not two but THREE freelance jobs! We hear about her experience thus far, and of course subject her CV to the ultimate test - our ATS! 

In other news, we've finally managed to meet up in person before the rain got involved, and George has made a commuting faux pas as London goes back to the office - but karma has a way of sorting things out...

On this week’s Jobs Bored we’re joined by people’s champion Ed Campbell from PoliticsJOE to hear about how to make compelling social media content, how to vox pop people about their sex lives and to finally decide which camel has two humps. Ed’s a social media prodigy, but will how will he come up against our ATS?

We're back for a third season, and to kick things off over our April break our CV reviewing system has been usurped by a bigger, badder machine. Our guests will have to up their CV game from now on! Sky News' Fergus MacPhee is the first guest to throw his CV down to be scrutinised, but how will he do on our new leaderboard?

In an action packed Season 2 finale, we welcome back season 1 guest Max Parry to find out why he’s pivoting back into journalism and going to work at GB News! As our first ever returning guest, we’ve got a couple of new games to bend his brain too.

Jobs Bored Season 3 will be here in a matter of weeks, until then a very Happy Easter!

This week on Jobs Bored we discuss contempt of court and whether it's worth the risk, plus George is going to be upping his calorie intake as he moves in with gym fiend and former JB guest Ollie Smith!

Our guest this week is Nabil Mehdinejad, someone who's taken a much more unorthodox route to becoming a journalist than most. We hear his incredible award-winning story and put his CV to the sword - but where will he come on our leaderboard?
