The Sports Career Question on the Show: What advice would you give to university students who want to pursue career in the sports industry?
Akhil's Answer: I would really advise everyone who's willing to start in the sports industry is that you have to be persistent. And you have to remember that if working in the sports industry is your dream, you need to find out why you want to do this, you really need to question the y. And then when you know the answer to the 'why'. Remember that it's going to take time, okay? But when you get there, you're going to be the happiest, and then you don't stop because you have to keep giving that value back. And if you're on that path. Trust me, it's the happiest journey you could be on because I genuinely believe that when it comes to your dreams, it might sound cliche, but it is when it comes to your dreams. It's too early to give up. So you gotta keep going and you're going to be strong in the game.
