Disfruto enormemente de este curso porque es una puerta abierta hacia la forma de pensar y de evaluar que tienen las empresas creativas respecto de la contratación de profesionales. Lo he visto varias veces pues tiene "tips" sumamente interesantes que además aplican para el ejercicio profesional en si. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
