Huge congratulations to our friends at Socket! Socket recently announced their $40M Series B, led by Abstract Ventures, Andreessen Horowitz and Elad Gil. It's been great to watch the success that Feross Aboukhadijeh and the team have had in such a short period of time! Congratulations to all involved! 🚀

Congratulations to World team on the recent announcements! It was especially exciting to see Adrian Ludwig onstage talking about how World is building a protocol (and not a business) and how security and privacy play into this. Erin Barry, Code Red Partners, has supported the security and engineering hiring success at World over the last couple of years, with support from Sam Evans of BlockTal. #world #helloworld #security #protocol #blockchain https://lnkd.in/gymC9Cad

Q3 2024 saw some company highlights and stand-out individual performances at Code Red Partners. As a company, we had the most new job intakes in a quarter since 2022, our average agency fee went up by 16%, and we brought on some pretty insane new company logos at the bleeding edge of technology. Our executive search practice has had the most new searches registered and placed in a quarter. We have filled 4 Head of Security/VP searches in the last four weeks, with more to come in Q4! We also had a great event season, with a particular company highlight being #BlackHat and #DefCon, where we were able network with friends, industry partners and customers, new and old. Some individuals highlight's at Code Red Partners: Erin Barry is one of the most talented, hardworking and creative recruiters I have ever worked with. Erin’s performance in Q3 was exceptional, Erin billed more in Q3 than most solid full desk recruiters can do in a billing year.  Her hiring versatility knows no bounds; she filled Head of Security, AI Security Research Lead, and Staff Level Security Engineer hires as some of the example placements she made in Q3. Rosie Geroux: Rosie took on a new leadership challenge in Q3 and has taken to it like a duck to water. She has so many personality traits that make her a good leader, including tenacity, compassion and empathy.  Rosie is a diligent and process-driven account manager who can demonstrate her core values and give a really great customer experience. There are two specific accounts in which she has had success in q3. With more to come in q4 and beyond! Dan Tittle: Q3 has been Dan’s first full quarter with CRP and it’s been a rollercoaster in the best possible way! Dan has an eye for top-tier talent and has been a great custodian in guiding his candidates through the recruitment process. He goes above and beyond to give his candidates and clients a great experience. A personal highlight was seeing him place the Security Compliance Lead at a well-known AI company. It is a massive hire for the client and for us! Spencer Adams: Similar to Dan, this was Spencer’s first full quarter with Code Red.  Coming with a depth of security recruiting experience, we expected big things, but we were still far from what we saw. In his first month, we saw our company’s ‘fastest ever placement’ and ‘fastest to $200k’ billings hit. It was also a ton of fun spending time with him and the team in Vegas! Lastly, a special shout-out to Lucyna Bolin . Behind every high-performing sales team is a best-in-class sales trainer who helps us to make those ‘marginal gains’ to maximize individual and company efficiencies. We are fortunate to have you, Lucy, on our A-team.  Thank you for being our professional guide, mentor, and, at times…therapist; we all very much appreciate you! #hiring #team #recruitment #cybersecurity #success

Hi all, I've had a few folks reach out to me over the past few months looking for some general guidance on how to think about progressing in their career. I've also been mentoring a few folks in my spare time as they navigate their way in their cybersecurity journey. To that end, I started thinking about some advice I'd give to my younger self. I took some time and wrote down my thoughts in a blog post. Some key takeaways include: * Embrace Ambiguity 🤔: Tackle challenging problems with unclear solutions. * Use Imposter Syndrome as Growth Fuel 🌱: Let it keep you curious and pushing boundaries. * Build Patience 🕰️: Significant impacts take time and persistence. * Listen More, Talk Less 👂: Especially when joining new teams or companies. * Seek Opportunities 🔍: Look for projects that have organization-wide impact. * Give Back 🙌: Mentoring and sharing experiences enrich both you and the community. * Focus on Actions Over Outcomes 🎯: Meaningful efforts lead to recognition. * Never Stop Interviewing 💼: Keep your skills sharp and be ready for new opportunities. * Communicate Impact Effectively 🗣️: Clear communication amplifies your impact. * Develop Emotional Intelligence 🤝: It's key in complex projects and relationships. * Embrace Vulnerability 🤗: Openness leads to growth and stronger connections. * Keep Innovating 💡: Stay mentally challenged and passionate about your work. * Balance Your Way ⚖️: Find the work-life integration that suits your life stage. * Be Open to Change 🌊: Don't hesitate to pursue new opportunities when they align with your goals. 🔗 Read the full blog here - https://lnkd.in/d7QKGZ_A Also, as part of giving back to the community, I'm offering free mentoring (career guidance, interview prep & tips, quick 1:1 chat) sessions.
