@whatjoedid said to come to North is you want to recruit diverse talent! You're more than welcome to Lancaster! 😃 #ISErec25

"It's only cheating if we tell you that you can't do it and you do it."

@BillBoorman had a great session earlier on recruiting in the age of AI. Something he said that resonated with me about the recruitment process was not discriminating against students using AI in the recruitment process if employers haven't said they can't...🤷🏾‍♀️#ISErec25

[LaVerne Handfield Parker @LHandfield2]

Another point from @BillBoorman was that if students are openly using AI in the application process, how are recruiters then testing and verifying their skillset? #ISErec25

Very excited to be joining #ISErec25 virtually, hosted by @IoSEorg !

If you know every time doesn't work out means that it could've with adjustments, you won't be disappointed, but you have to embrace it

Great presentations from & Q&A with @lisaperkinsadpk from @BTGroup & Rahul Sani from @TCS about #PurposefulInnovation and #BusinessSkillsForGenZ at @techskillsorg #TIGLive

[LaVerne Handfield Parker @LHandfield2]

AMAZING response from Rahul to a question from the audience:
Q: The IT world is competitive. How do you deal with failure?
A: That depends on how you define failure. I never fail; I only learn."
