Re: Building SPC panel on recruiting and hiring

[Brad Judy <brad.judy () CU EDU>]

I’m still looking for partners in an SPC session focused on recruiting and hiring practices in information security. If 
you are doing something different or new for recruiting or hiring, come join me to talk about techniques that might 
help others to improve their recruiting processes. I’d love to have a panel with folks from 4-5 schools who each bring 
their own spin on the process.

Drop me a note and we can chat about putting together a session.

Thanks,

Brad Judy

Subject: [SECURITY] Building SPC panel on recruiting and hiring

With the addition of leadership/professional development/personnel management track in the 2019 SPC conference and the 
call for proposals open (https://events.educause.edu/security-professionals-conference/2019/call-for-proposals), I’m 
looking for a few partners to work with on a panel session focused on people trying new/interesting/progressive things 
in the area of recruiting and hiring.

My thought is to have a panel session with 4-ish people from different institutions who are doing interesting things in 
recruiting and hiring for information security staff. Are you doing something special with how you write job postings, 
how you advertise them, how you screen and interview, etc? Maybe you’re tackling challenges of recruiting in a smaller 
city, increasing diversity, working with strict HR structures, etc.

I’m envisioning each person giving a brief overview of “my goal/challenge was X, so I did A, B and C because I felt it 
would achieve my goals in these ways..” followed a combination of audience questions and questions from the panel 
moderator (if needed to get things rolling or keep discussion active).  My goal is to provide multiple viewpoints and a 
variety of options that people could try. To that end, I’d like to build a panel that represents different approaches 
and/or different constraints.

I try to doing new and different things each time I hire and push the envelope with new techniques to have an inclusive 
and fair process. Do you do the same? Let’s talk.

Thanks,
