On the last Biz Takeouts Marketing and Media Radio show on Thursday, 22 January, show host Warren Harding was joined in studio by Nadia Boucher Coombe, Head of Marketing for 24.com.

We focused specifically on Careers24 (@Careers24Jobs), as it's that time of the year when matriculants are looking at entering the jobs market and many South Africans are looking at a change in career direction.
