One of the fantastic elements to surveying is the number of routes into the profession. This week The RICS Podcast showcases three members who began their paths in other regulated professions before becoming surveyors themselves.
Demi Yianni is joined this week by Kirsten Hald and Maria Wiedner to discuss their vastly different backgrounds, transferable skills, how they explain their roles to friends and family, and the most important personality traits in surveying.
This episode of The RICS Podcast covers:
- Kirsten’s teaching career before her entry to surveying
- Transferable skills from Maria’s past, including work in finance and the UN
- Why surveying stuck out compared to previous vocations
- The challenge of explaining surveying roles to loved ones
- The top personality traits for those looking to become a surveyor
