Our founder Robert Hughes has been contributing to a LinkedIn collaborative article about recruiting security operatives. When asked about assessing candidates, this is what he had to say. What do you think?
"I advocate for incorporating tests and simulations into the evaluation process. These tools offer a nuanced understanding of candidates' technical and soft skills, ensuring a comprehensive assessment. Moreover, my perspective emphasises the need to go beyond the tangible skills and delve into intangibles such as potential, curiosity, and passion for cybersecurity.
Having successfully placed numerous professionals in dynamic roles, I recognise the value of candidates who not only showcase existing skills but also demonstrate a keen ability to learn, adapt, and collaborate. This approach ensures that your team comprises individuals who thrive in the fast-paced and complex environment."
