On the show today, we have Aiden McGale, one of Ireland’s leading Design talent recruiters, and founder of DesignTalent.ie - a job board that connects talent directly to businesses. He’s doing things a little bit differently, and is connecting Design Leaders directly with emerging talent through his portfolio review series in Dublin, something that is picking up speed. We speak about the chasm between education and the real world, and how to connect directly with businesses. We speak about attitudes, and also the question I get asked a lot “should I take just any job?”
