Is This For Me? Ten Tips On Finding Your Fit With Studio Culture, Ft. Julia Nicholls

Studio culture can make or break a job. Candidates need to know how to read the signs before joining, and practices need to understand what people actually experience day to day.

Stephen Drew speaks with Julia Nicholls about finding the right fit with studio culture, including leadership, transparency, mentoring, inclusion, wellbeing, CPD, social life, salary and how to ask better questions during an interview process.

The conversation covers:

What candidates should look for when judging studio culture

How leadership, hierarchy and succession affect everyday work

Why mentoring, reviews and training matter for career progression

    Hello everyone. Dry January. If you're drinking already, you're a very naughty boy or girl, but I won't judge you for me. I'm sober, Joe. We're gonna get this show on the road. Don't worry. It's been a long day. Blue Monday's gone. I don't know what it is. Thursday. Thursday, damn. Not living up to the old, uh, gray Jan theme.

  2. Anyways, well will be revealed in 15 seconds. Woo. Who's still on LinkedIn at this time? I wonder. I'm glad you here anyways. 3, 2, 1. Woo. Hello everyone. Thank you for tuning in. If you do have that alcoholic beverage, I'm not gonna judge you, but don't worry, I won't be sleeping at the wheel. Julia, my guest might have a little, little, little taste of something over here.
