Hank is an award-winning Mortgage Broker and has consistently appeared in the Top 100 Brokers in Australia, and was ranked 8th in 2024. What does this mean though? We get to the bottom of this in the ep too.  Get in touch with Hank AKA The Bank and other guests on the pod here, and get involved by asking your questions or volunteering yourself or a friend to be a guest on the Work Experience Kid Podcast here.

    What's life like working in Cyber Security and should we be paying attention to those recruitment ads? It's a growing industry, but what kind or person should you be, and what are necessary skills? James Newburrie is the guy you want on your team to keep your network secure, and to inspire you to get into this industry. James also answers basic questions and helps us better understand processes and those annoying things IT departments make us do. Heads up: This ep contains the C-bomb. It doesn't contain the E symbol because it's part of some valuable advice that children must hear. Whilst it's possible that you won't read this part until it's too late, consider it a warning!
