GCSEs ‘check’
Dropped out of 6th form
(+ the ‘older boyfriend’ happened’!)
Tried to find an ‘on the job’ training
program
Nothing out there, so I got a temp job and got
fearlessly stuck in
It gave me exposure to Virgin - who liked my
enthusiasm
‘University of Virgin’ I worked my way up and
travelled the world;CS rep to Global Head of
Brand
Spotify beckoned - education didn’t matter,
experience and attitude did
5yrs at Spotify and the opportunities to
grow keep coming…
My journey;

An education can either be a stepping stone or a road block
I learned;
![Page 43: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
A driven personality always finds a way
I learned;

Embracing the uncertainty is scary,
but exciting
I learned;
![Page 45: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Working your way up earns you respect
(and is a smart move for your employer)
I learned;
![Page 46: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
I stood out from the crowd
It meant;
![Page 47: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
I was given unique opportunities
It meant;
![Page 48: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
I’ve never been a a slave to the student loan
It meant;
![Page 49: CS Presents. ..F**k University](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110107/58a6793c1a28ab94238b4a0b/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Final thoughts;
PEOPLE: You are diverse - hiring people like you is not
IN THE FUTURE: There are jobs that don’t exist today - we need to look forward and anticipate the skills that will be needed in the future
