On Thursday October 5th 2017 we are launching the Mentor\/Mentee initiative<\/b>, sponsored by Google.<\/div>\n
With this initiative we want to provide a stepping stone for people who are new to the infosec community.<\/div>\n
During this event you can choose to be a Mentor or a Mentee or even both.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mentors are typically seasoned professionals, having done quite some miles on the professional infosec road, and are willing to provide advice to the Mentees.<\/div>\n
This advice can vary from Mentee to Mentee, but could include: which training should I follow, what are key messages you can give based on personal experience, how do I get to know new people, whom to follow on Twitter, general advice to survive in this industry, to help with presenations and much more.<\/div>\n
Mentees, can be people who are fairly new to the security scene, or a willing to receive advice from more seasoned professionals.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
We all started at some point in time within this industry, and we have all had our challenges. With this programme we want to close this gap and create a stronger bond between<\/div>\n
seasoned professionals and people new to the industry. The Mentor\/Mentee programme is a initiative that can vary in duration. For some this might be a one-off event, but for others this<\/div>\n
might create a bond with a mentor that will last.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Please join us from 19 (7 PM) until 21 (9 PM) at the Novotel Bar. Be sure to use the mentor \/ mentee stickers to indicate the role you want to play.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
