    Watch: Insights from a PATH recruiter on careers in global health

    Yvette Herrera-Greer, a senior recruiter at PATH, discusses the organization’s priorities in the year ahead and which soft and technical skills are in demand and what those skills mean for hiring.

    By Devex Editor // 26 July 2021
    Yvette Herrera-Greer, a senior recruiter at PATH, joins Devex to discuss the organization’s priorities in the year ahead and what that means for hiring. Data management and visualization, epidemiology, and supply chain are just some of the technical skills in demand. There are also opportunities for professionals from a finance, procurement, or human resources background, among others, to support project administration and operational roles. Highlights from this event include: • Which technical and soft skills are in demand. • The experience that can help those changing careers break into the development sector. • The top CV mistakes to avoid. • How donor experience can help candidates stand out. • Why cover letters are still important to PATH recruiters. • Advice on how professionals with career gaps can address them in their application. Speaker: Yvette Herrera-Greer, senior global recruiter at PATH Moderator: Emma Smith, Devex contributor
