Careers in Progress Podcast
We’re all a work in progress, especially when it comes to our careers.
About the Podcast
Careers in Progress is DeakinTALENT’s podcast for navigating the exciting, uncertain and sometimes messy journey from study to career.
Whether you’re exploring your options, chasing your first opportunity or figuring out what might come next, you’re not alone. This is a space for honest conversations, shared experiences and the lessons we learn along the way. Together, we’ll unpack the questions, celebrate the wins and embrace the pivots that remind us there’s no single path to building a meaningful career.
Because you don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to keep making progress.
Jayant Sharma is a Deakin student, travel vlogger and host of Careers in Progress. Whether he’s exploring a new destination or hosting a conversation, Jay has a knack for finding the stories, perspectives and moments worth sharing.
When he’s not behind the mic, he’s probably searching for Melbourne’s next great coffee spot or adding another destination to his (ever-expanding) travel bucket list.
