It's fitting since Jim made a career change of his own just a couple years shy of his fiftieth birthday.  In 2019, he started his own Data\/AI Consulting firm.   One year later the pandemic hit.   And in 2024, he and his family packed their bags and moved from the US to Australia! Today Jim runs US-based, Cirrus, from down under.   During his career, Jim has helped thousands of people naviagte their careers.   He understands the challenges associated with making the decision to persue a new path. We talked about cultural fit, job interviews, the importance of networking, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance.  But perhaps the most important piece of advice had to do with being genuine and true to oneself.
