What’s it really like to work in architecture? The hosts of Archispeak know, and they’re here to share real-life experiences. Since 2012 architects Evan Troxel and Cormac Phalen have been podcasting their brand of real talk on everything from design, tools, and work/life balance to generational differences, mentoring, job hunting, and more. Probing questions, revelatory interviews, and unique insights have grown their audience and become a weekly ritual for students and seasoned professionals alike.

#291 - Architects are an Endangered Species

Topic

We discuss the power of negotiation that an in-demand candidate has during a job search, the lack of training in architectural education about money and business, the ongoing talent drought, the mythical bonus, AIA dues, waning architectural publications as an analogy to the profession, provide our take on a provocative LinkedIn post by Evelyn Lee, and we take a stab at figuring out how long it actually takes to train an architect.
