One of the things no employer will ever tell you when you first set out in our industry is that they want you to shine, but they're not going to give you the time to do it, that's up to you!.
When your first starting out in the industry the workload can be massive, but, with careful planning and some strategic thinking, you can still find time to go above and beyond and make yourself stand out.
I know, when I'm recruiting for a role, I look at experience, but I also like to look past that to try and work out how engaged a candidate may be in the role. Passion, ambition, determination, there all equally important, well, for me at least!.
