To tech recruiters in the biotech industry: What resources, training, and or tools have you used to help you better understand the tech roles you’re sourcing and recruiting? I don’t have a tech background and admittedly have not learned as much as I should’ve since transitioning into the space during the pandemic. Our company will be opening a new location soon and while I’m well respected by leadership, I’m starting to feel like an imposter. Any help is appreciated.

It really depends on the positions you are recruiting for. Is it 100% software roles? Is some of it hardware? IT infrastructure?

Just want to update that the book has already come in handy in identifying someone’s relevant YOE and qualifying them for a promotion. Thank you!
