IT Job Seekers and Employers to Connect Virtually Around the Globe During ISACA’s Online Career Fair
Announcement posted by Established Media 21 Aug 2019
Sydney, Australia (21 August 2019) – Actively addressing the current skills gap, global association ISACA is holding its bi-annual Online Career Fair on 26 September 2019. Employers seeking great tech talent and IT professionals interested in exploring new jobs and professional development opportunities have the chance to connect in a virtual environment and access to a rich repository of career resources.
According to the latest research from ISACA’s State of Cybersecurity 2019, cybersecurity professionals are still in short supply and hard to find, with 69 percent of respondents stating their cybersecurity teams are understaffed.
“ISACA research has demonstrated that organisations worldwide continue to struggle to fill open roles for qualified IT professionals on their teams,” said Brennan P. Baybeck, ISACA board chair. “We know that a skilled, technology-minded workforce is critical to not only keeping businesses running optimally, but also has far-reaching impacts worldwide around security, data privacy and the ability for enterprises to effectively leverage technology’s growing capabilities. ISACA is proud to connect its talented professional community with leading employers and valuable resources to help practitioners and organisations achieve their full potential—and further drive the positive potential of technology globally.”
To help job seekers prepare for the ISACA Online Career Fair and other career search activities, ISACA is also hosting a free hour-long webinar, How to Start Your Job Hunt, on 23 August 2019, which is available for replay. Learning and development professional Blair Celli will provide participants with insights into optimising their resumes/CV and LinkedIn profiles, narrowing down what they are looking for in a job, networking and applying for jobs effectively.

The Online Career Fair allows ISACA members to search IT job listings, post their resume/CV, apply for positions online, chat in real time with potential employers and access career coaching via Catapult—free of charge. Companies seeking qualified candidates for open positions in IT and information systems benefit from having exposure to highly skilled, experienced and certified IT professionals from around the world. By sponsoring an online booth, a registered employer can easily engage in online conversations with prospective employees to determine whether they might be a good fit for the companies’ roles.
Along with the Online Career Fair, ISACA’s Career Centre offers resources to build and improve careers through videos on building personal brands and networking skills, career tips, resume writing, career coaching and social networking profile development.
