The Career Architect: How to Build a Career You're Proud of with Bryce Batts

Ever looked around at your career and thought, “How the heck did I end up here?” Yeah — and you’re not alone. But that’s because your career was happening to you…instead of you making it happen.

In this episode, we chat with Bryce Batts, a recruiter specialized in the AEC industry who’s helped over 800 professionals land jobs that actually fit their life and align with their values.

After years of coaching and recruiting engineers, she put all her best career tips and advice into The Career Architect — a book that cracks the code of how to build a career you're proud of from the get-to…or get unstuck if you feel miserable where you’re at.

The simple secret? 🤔

According to her, a fulfilling career doesn’t fall into your lap — it’s something you build!

If you’re stuck in a rut, thinking about making a switch, or just tired of “going with the flow,” then this is for you. Why?

It will help you rethink how you approach and achieve professional success — and she gives you the best tips straight out of her book on how to do this as well. 😉
