‘How Did You Get That Job?’ is back – and we’re changing up the format a little bit!

In our new mini-series, host Shaun Cheatham, Chief Relationship Officer at Hays, explores the trends and technologies impacting the future of work.

In the first episode, Shaun speaks to James Milligan, Hays’ Global Head of STEM, and James Hutt, founder of transformation consultancy Paradigm Junction. Listen as they discuss how AI is already impacting the labour market for young people, what this means for senior employees, and how organisations and professionals can stay ahead of the competition.
