Career Planning Tips for Geotechnical Engineers

In this video, we talk to John Peirce Jr., P.E., D.GE, founder and principal of Peirce Engineering about the importance of mentoring young engineers, the need for field experience before becoming a design engineer, and continuing education. I believe this episode will especially help you if you are earlier in your career and if you are trying to plan how to move up in your career.
