TWWork (formerly 'This Woman's Work') is a multi-faceted career resource and content library, that has interview-based podcasts at its core.
TWWork was set-up to tackle two fundamental problems:
Because fitting into the working world is hard
For lots of us, but especially for (our main/core audience of) women who have made sacrifices for their children/families and when they try to ‘come back’ to work, (too) often find they no longer fit into a career, or indeed a role they once held dear.
But fitting in is a problem that affects not just working mothers… It has never been harder to find, fit into and thrive in the right job, which is madness. But a madness that TWWork wants to help cure.
Because the recruitment system/industry globally is outdated
... and fundamentally restrictive, and it needs a massive shake-up!
Countless talent is going under-utilised, globally, either because it can’t be ‘easily’ or ‘conveniently’ found, or because recruiters only want to look for linear candidates that fit into predetermined boxes.
Or, because more and more AI and tech-based recruitment solutions think they can find the ‘right’ people via data and coding algorithms, which ignore everything special and unique about a person.
This is a human problem and we are going to ‘cure it’ in a human way.

Chops had so much to ask 19-year old uni student, Harrison, about his generation... Which was unfair. However, he did the best he could to answer questions like: What do you think the working world is going to be like when you graduate? How motivated by money is your generation? How (face-to-face) social is your generation?
Inevitably the conversation turned to Ai a few times, and it was sad to hear Harrison say that he had NO idea how Ai was going to impact the industry he's hoping to work in; and how after his 7-years at Uni (yep, 7), he's fully aware that he might not even get a job doing it, because the world will have changed so much.
His worries aside, Harrison is having the time of his life at Uni, which in itself is an interesting reminder. Despite the astronomical costs of University now, it IS an amazing, liberating experience for young people (if done right). It's their first chance to be independent and in FULL control of their lives, without the pressures of day-to-day working (adult life).... Pressures that will grow and grow and which they'll spend the rest of their lives bearing. Putting all 'that' off for a few years has got to be good for the human soul and spirit, right?
Please meet Harrison.
