TechnicallyMarketing

Wiem Zine Elabidine describes herself as a student who wasn't the most studious and often couldn't grasp the practicality behind what she was learning but after choosing computer science at school on a whim she wanted to learn more!

Find out how a twitter post got her to her first conference and why she was surprised when people asked her how it felt to be a woman speaking at a conference all in this episode of Technically Marketing...

Tom Sydney is a Tech Lead living in Zurich, he tells us about his unconventional experiences while studying computer science, how he faced rejection at companies including Facebook and Google and his journey into the organizational technique Self-Management!

Elly Zhang began her career in fashion... joining a PR agency just after she graduated she had always dreamed of moving to London. She found herself on the tech scene managing the operations of a Blockchain company and that is when her career took a turn but what is it like to begin a start-up tech company based, on relationships, in a completely different culture to the one you know? Elly says she has often asked herself 'Am I in the right place?' and she reassures herself she ABSOLUTELY IS!

Chloe Tartan is a Blockchain Researcher, she is also the co-founder of women in blockchain. And I can proudly say that since we connected her with Giovanna Jagger co-founder of the WokenUp app, Chloe is now the blockchain thought leader for the app (which is a social platform made for sharing Sustainable Development Goals). 

 

We run though EVERYTHING... "News", staying educated, predicting how tech will evolve as a result of the pandemic, incentivizing correct information and is AI taking over the world? ...should you be worried?

Janine Owen is a marketing and comms expert, at the time this podcast was recorded she was in the process of leaving Search Consultancy and can now be found as she puts it 'wearing many hats'. We chat everything from the SEO she used in the early days of her career that would now make a website blacklisted, where it all began; in letter marketing, being and having a mentor, reading bits and bobs and her thoughts on recruitment... it is 'one of the only industries left where you're not paid upfront!'

This is a very special episode, as we have decided to merge with our Women in Tech series over on Youtube. We speak to Ekua Cant, Career Coach and Tech Advocate, she is passionate about start-ups, diversity and inclusion. We discussed imposter syndrome, having the conversation on Black Lives Matter, being a third culture kid, her journey into tech, lockdown realisations, asking ALL the important questions; like what do you value more, work ethic or wellbeing? And how to become your own cheerleader?

Julien Truffaut is a backend engineer, he loves to help and teach junior developers and for the past five years, he has been running his own functional programming workshops, which he discusses in this episode. He also tells us why he was disappointed by the video game industry, challenges he thinks we all have to overcome, how he got into tech and much more!

Tech...nically Marketing because we work where tech, recruitment and marketing collide. This is a little introduction to us (your hosts); Marketing Manager, Shannon Lynch and Marketing Assistant Elle Nash and also our company, Signify Technology. Enjoy!
