Sam Bloom's Linkedin Analytics

Hello, and welcome to my LinkedIn profile! Here’s a bit about my professional journey. I began my career when I was a teenager, on screen with Colin Firth in the BBC adaptation of Pride & Prejudice and I worked in a few TV adverts most notably as the ‘Sunny D’ Boy’! After my GCSEs I spent a few months at college before moving from Manchester to London to be part of a pop band allSTARS which also had a spin-off hit TV show Starstreet, regularly shown on CITV and SMTV. Having the opportunity to perform on TOTP, tour the UK and sing at Wembley, in addition to meeting some real genuine superstars and experience some crazy nights is something I’m incredibly grateful for. After my 'showbiz' career came to an end, I co-founded Inspiring Interns in 2009 where I served as part of the management team as Sales Director. With a focus on fast growth, our team successfully placed thousands of recent graduates into internships, bridging the gap between education and the professional world. After nine fulfilling years at Inspiring Interns, my co-founder, Ben Hazan, and I recognized the hiring challenges that the shift in mindset from Millennial to Gen Z job seekers would pose for businesses. This led us to create a Gen Z friendly hiring-platform helping businesses tap into the next generation of talent entering the workforce with engaging short-form media, social links and values, as opposed to uninspiring plain text job vacancies. Our Platform, Agency & White Label services not only cater to the unique needs of Gen Z but also help our client’s future-proof their businesses whether they're a start-up or established. It is immensely rewarding to witness the impact of our efforts as these recent Graduates embark on their career journeys surpassing all expectations. Our success at GradBay has been recognised by both the RADs and The Drum awards, in relation to Outstanding Digital Experience for Early Talent. I am passionate about empowering young professionals and creating meaningful connections between employers and talent. If you are seeking a dynamic and forward-thinking professional to collaborate with, or if you're interested in learning more about GradBay services, I would be delighted to connect with you. Let's explore how we can revolutionize the way businesses approach talent acquisition and create a future-ready workforce together.
