Olivia Carville on covering big tech at one of the world’s greatest magazines

She started her career in journalism in her hometown of Ōtautahi, three months before the quakes. Four years later she left and effectively restarted from scratch in Canada, only to do that all over again a few years later in New York. This combination of doggedness, ambition and a willingness to humble herself in pursuit of true greatness has now landed Olivia Carville at Businessweek, the flagship of global business media giant Bloomberg. She tells her incredible story to Duncan Greive, and gives a masterclass in how to get to the top of longform journalism along the way. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
