#1 Best-Selling Author, Speaker, Executive, and Founder. My mission is to ensure YOU can Attract, Recruit, and Retain the Top-Talent in YOUR marketplace!
When looking to build a CyberSecurity, AI, Cloud, or any other in-demand/hard to find skillset team where do you start? 🤔 1-Attract: Ensuring that you have a consistent, attractive and well publicized Employment Brand 2-Recruit: Sourcing, Candidate Outreach, Interviews, and moving active candidates through your process to offer. 3-Retain: Ensuring you have maximized the likelihood that, once found and onboarded, new team-members are likely to stay. From my experience both building my own internal technology teams and assisting our Member companies to build theirs, I have to tip my hat to Dr. Stephen Covey and his book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and say, "Begin with the end in Mind." By starting with Retention you not only ensure the Attract & Recruit efforts (and the resources they consume!) aren't being wasted BUT you actually assist them with internal good will, case studies, Employee Brand marketing opportunities, employee referrals, and many other positive things. Besides, at risk of being glib, it's easier to fill buckets than Colanders! When we're helping our Member organizations to transform into Destination Employers this is why we start at Retention. Put simply, "Because it works." #retentionstrategies #Cybersecurityjobs #itjobs #cloudjobs #aijobs #raas

Hi everyone. This week's #cybersecurity job tip is one of my favorites. Did you know that it's possible to move laterally into tech from your current non-tech role? That's right - you can break into cybersecurity & IT at the company you currently work for! Many companies are open to hiring internally, especially for entry-level positions. As a hiring manager, I've done this myself. 🔥 Here's how to make it happen: 1. Research. Find out who manages the team you want to work on. 2. Reach out. Ask to do a short 1x1 chat to learn more about what they do day-to-day. Learn about their team's mission & purpose. 3. Show off your skills. During the chat, tell them what you've done on your own. Show your love of learning. If you have hands-on experience (such as a home lab), be sure to mention it. 4. Be proactive. Offer to be a champion for tech initiatives. Volunteer for small projects. Be a liaison between your team and theirs. If you follow these steps, you'll dramatically increase your chances of being considered when an entry-level position becomes available on that team. It's a proven strategy for getting your foot in the door and breaking into tech. Who knows? That dream job might be right under your nose. Rooting for you. 🔥 === My name is Naomi. Every Sunday in 2024, I'll be posting a new job tip on finding entry-level tech and cybersecurity jobs, as well as an example job using that tip, if possible. My primary goal is to help more people break into cybersecurity and technology roles. My secondary goal is to help hiring managers and companies see that it's both normal and possible to hire juniors for their teams. If you have a tip or an entry-level job listing that you'd like to share, please send me a DM. 💙 Rooting for you. 🔥

Have you ever searched for Entry level jobs in tech only to find that you needed 3-5 years of experience? If you have your degree you may have some of the required experience covered....if you don't feel confident though, there are true #entrylevel jobs in #Tech and #cybersecurity check out Naomi's tips for narrowing your search below.
Hi everyone. 👋🏼 This week's tip on finding #entrylevel jobs in #tech and #cybersecurity is a good one. Using your favorite search engine, search Glassdoor Reviews for the terms "great for entry level" and "good for entry level". You'll get a list of companies who have a proven history of investing in the next generation (see screenshot below as an example). Next, visit these companies' websites. They should have a "Careers" or "Jobs" page (or similar). Look for jobs with "Junior" or "Analyst" or "Specialist" in their titles. Sometimes they'll have the Roman Numeral "1" in the title as well (e.g. "Cybersecurity Analyst I"). These are the jobs you want to apply to, because they are truly entry-level. No prior experience required. Thank you to the companies that spend their time, money, and resources on building up the next generation of technology and cybersecurity professionals. You guys are my favorite. 🔥 === My name is Naomi.

I know that I have a lot of people in my connections that are looking to make that transition into tech. Read Naomi's post about great ways of trying to make that move. There can be great opportunities with your current employer if you build your network internally. Your current employer will already know if you are a great employee, someone who is willing to branch out and take on new tasks and learn new things. Use this to your benefit. Do this while you are still looking at different companies but don't forget to look internally.
