Asana’s Julie Kinsella talks about her own career journey and shares advice for young professionals about trusting the process.
Career Close-up is our brand-new video series in partnership with IDA Ireland where we chat to senior employees in some of Ireland’s leading multinationals about their career journeys within Ireland’s dynamic tech and science industries.
