Adtech Design and Development Leaders | S2 Ep10

Welcome to the second season of the ‘Adtech Design & Development Leaders’ hosted by Jakey Bentwood; Divisional Recruitment Manager. In this series, we discuss different avenues for development, areas of focus, how to speak about project experience, and over time help guide other professionals in their longer-term goals and motivations. 

In the last episode of the series, host Jake Bentwood is joined by Jenna Knudsen and Alex Korter of CO Architects.

 

Jake had the opportunity to speak with two firmwide leaders, one of whom oversees recruitment efforts, to discuss the intersection of healthcare design and hiring/attrition. This episode is a must-listen for any design professional interested in the fields of healthcare, health sciences, and S&T!
