Can you describe a typical working day for you?<\/span><br \/>\n<\/strong>It\u2019s been great so far and very full-on \u2013 I really feel like I\u2019ve hit the ground running. The day will usually start with news hunting, followed by writing and interviewing for most of the rest of the day for a wide range of articles. Either that, or I\u2019ll be at meetings with industry contacts or events.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 18px;\">What do you enjoy the most about your job?
