COVdID not bridge the skills gap!

Presented at ShellCon 2020 Virtual, Oct. 9, 2020, 2 p.m. (55 minutes)

Whether your current staff members are handing in their notice, or that candidate you're excited to hire is turning down your offer you're feeling the Information Security skills gap. With unemployment in the security industry at such low levels, the pandemic is reducing the candidates on the market. The skills gap is getting bigger, not smaller.

Candidates are getting more offers and your security team are getting multiple calls and emails offering them the world. You need to make sure that you understand the drivers of why people start looking for new opportunities, as they are the same reasons that candidates accept positions.
