Job-Hunting During Economic Uncertainty: UAV Edition

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)—commonly referred to as drones—have made remarkable strides in recent years, influencing sectors from agriculture and construction to media, logistics, and beyond. Whether monitoring crops with multispectral sensors, capturing cinematic aerial footage, or inspecting infrastructure in dangerous or hard-to-reach locations, UAVs continue to prove their versatility and value.
