What are the unwritten rules to get a top job?
Hashi Mohamed came to the UK aged nine, as an unaccompanied child refugee, with hardly any English. His academic achievements at school were far from stellar. Yet he now works as a barrister - and so is a member of one of the elite professions that have traditionally been very difficult for people from poor backgrounds to crack. So how did he do it? In a personal take on social mobility, he talks to mentors and other people who have followed in that path.
First broadcast on Adventures in Social Mobility, 16 April 2017.
