It seems to me that unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the past 5 years, the phrase on everyone’s lips is AI and the insatiable pace of innovation in that field.

On our latest episode of the career compass, I was delighted to be joined by Carl Kirchoff and Sadra Shokouhi of Hashthink, who sat down to discuss the evolving capabilities of AI in respect to company hiring processes, particularly in terms of how it can improve, automate and supercharge the candidate experience.

All of them were/are neurodiverse individuals.

- Examples of how neurodiversity contributes to innovation and problem-solving within organisations

- Notable individuals / public figures in the neurodiverse community who have made significant contributions in their fields
