About this Podcast:

The world of work is a maze with twists, turns and dead ends often with no particular end in sight. You can’t always see round the corner and there are so many potential turns that it can be hard to decide. A-Mazing Careers aims to give people who are part-way through their career the confidence that change at any stage is possible, and those starting out that the decisions they make now do not have to be the only path that their career takes them.
