In this episode, we talk to ExploreAI Academy alum David Labuschagne, the placements lead and soon-to-be B2B sales lead at ExploreAI.

We discuss Dave's journey from studying economics, becoming a game ranger, studying data science, and ultimately working in placements and sales. We delve into the common mistakes graduates make as they enter the job market, how culture in the workplace has been affected by the move to remote working, how rejections in sales teach different approaches to deal with failure, and how Dave optimises for 'Doing well by doing good'.
