Episode #7: How to Develop your Commercial Awareness

In this episode, we spoke with Peter Watson who worked as a stockbroker for 13 years in London and Tokyo, and advised some of the world’s largest financial institutions on investing in the UK, European and Japanese stock markets. He also worked across four recruitment agencies.   In this episode we discuss: - where candidates typically fall down in commercial interviews; - what strategies you can start implementing today to develop your commercial awareness; - the key issues to know for your interviews in sectors like technology and retail; and - how you can leverage your commercial awareness to stand out during vacation schemes and law firm events.  If you want to learn more about Peter, check out his daily commercial awareness briefing called Watson's Daily. His daily newsletter is now free as of the release of this podcast! This episode is hosted by: Jaysen Sutton. The music in this episode is created by: Ichabod Todd. ichabod-todd.weebly.com/
