Abstract:
Despite the fact that Cyber Security / Info Sec professionals possess skills that are in great demand- in many cases operating in a negative unemployment environment (meaning more open jobs than qualified people) successfully landing a great job is not always a guarantee. This talk will help turn great cyber pro's into great job seekers as well. Advice on hiring trends and best practices in this talk are based on years of interviews and interactions with recruiters and hiring managers (predominately Info Sec or IT focused) at events such as BSides in San Antonio, TX and Augusta, GA as well as and multiple Cyber/InfoSec Specific Job Fairs recently held in San Antonio, TX, Huntsville, AL, Baltimore, MD and Washington, DC.About Bob:
