Chris Thompson | Audley Travel

What do you do if you’ve got a great degree, stacks of quality volunteer and intern experience in nature conservation but then spend over six months applying for jobs without a single interview?

Having left university, this is what faced our guest today, Chris Thompson. He decided to try a different approach and one which resulted in multiple interviews and job offers within a couple of weeks. Amazing.

Chris combined his passions for wildlife and travel and focused on the often-overlooked ecotourism sector. He now works happily at Audley Travel. In this podcast he talks about his job hunt, what it’s like to work in the ecotourism or responsible tourism sector, and provides some great careers advice for those seeking to follow in his footsteps.

As always, if you enjoy our podcast, please let us know and do leave us a review, we read them all and they really help us to get in front of more people.
