Hey,
My first paid job in football came through one person.
Someone I worked with at Sky Bet got a role at Wigan.
He brought me in as a recruitment analyst. Part-time, around my day job.
Player rating models, data visualisation, and out doing live and video scouting across the Midlands.
I'd done freelance scouting and analysis before that, paid and unpaid. But this was the first time a club had me on a contract.
