We’re Back
Apologies for radio silence – we’ve been busy planning and doing other stuff. We want you to know that Workshop Wednesdays start back up next week and alongside our other stuff we are working with the Bristol Data Science and Machine Learning group for a workshop on how to get a job in the domain.
“Back to Work” – Job Hunting Data Science and AI sector
Join us for an evening focused on best practices for navigating the AI and ML jobs market. What to put in a CV (and what not), where to find jobs, how to prepare for the interview, and things to think about if making the jump from employed to freelance or contractor.
If you’ve got burning questions you’ve always wanted answered about getting started or getting ahead in the fast-paced IT jobs world, then now’s your chance!
Who should attend?
This isn’t a complete beginners session; we will assume you know what a CV is. Hopefully you already have one! This event will be how to tailor your CV and job hunting for the Data Science, Data Engineering, AI, ML or associated tech market. There will be no generic advice, everything is focused on this sector.
Hopefully you’ll walk away with a few new strategies to try, some useful advice you can put into practice right away, and a boost to your confidence!

Careers Fair and Apprenticeship Conference
Its in work but planned for the 8th of November at the watershed. We are working with various partners to debunk how companies can tap in to the apprenticeship levy as well as tell out members where they can get free training to get into or back into the industry. We’ve discussed the levy a lot previously and its an amazing option for trainers, trainees, returners and all companies paying it.
The event will also include a careers event as well as opportunities for companies to understand how to use it to up-skill their staff, or support returners etc. If you want to get involved feel free to email us on info@wthub.org and we can give you some details.
