Show Notes
We talk a lot about closing the skills gap, but it's harder said than done. So we thought we'd tackle the problem in our 2nd episode os Say Easy, Do Hard. Part 1 will discuss the skills needed, the requirements of the position, and the real qualifications for cybersecurity jobs. We will discuss the practical, realistic expectations of working in cybersecurity, not the hyped stereotypical positions.
After discussing the requirements for working in cybersecurity, part 2 will tackle where to find the talent. We will explore education, apprenticeships, mentorships, and training. We will also identify areas within the business that have resources with skills that are very complementary with cybersecurity that also make great recruiting areas.
