I’ve spoken with and read a lot about the dreadful shortage of talent in the security industry, but I also wonder if there really is the great dearth of candidates that companies are claiming. Is the problem not so much that there really aren’t enough skilled men and women to fill these 1.5 million jobs, or is the problem more with the pre-requisite level of experience companies want from new hires?
For those security news who are looking to get a foot in the door, perhaps you might be better off taking a more circuitous path than the traditional front door.
