The Young Professionals Podcast (TYPP), proudly brought to you by ADAPT Careers (https://adaptcareers.com.au) and co-hosted by Luke Marriott and Nicholas Sargeant (Sarge).
Today we chat with Ben Chipp, Digital Strategist at Google. Ben assists businesses looking to scale their revenue through Google marketing solutions. Ben studied Bachelor of Commerce at Monash University (https://www.monash.edu/study/courses/find-a-course/2021/commerce-b2001), majoring in Finance and Economics.
Having always been interested in maths from a young age, Ben thought his career would end up in finance, however through some work experience during university, Ben quickly discovered his passion for technology.
Having spent time at a few different companies, including a technology start-up before landing his current role, Ben is a big advocate for having a purpose behind your goals and letting that purpose guide your decision-making, not the desired outcome. Ben also completed a Computer Science short course at Harvard University, and has made the change from Melbourne to Sydney - a great example of how setting ambitious goals can lead to unexpected achievements.
