Brandon Walker(Talent Acquisition Specialist at Schellman & Company, LLC.)
Former meathead (still kind of) turned cybersecurity recruiting pro! A little bit about me… I started out training athletes that competed in some of the highest levels of sports we have in our country. I soon noticed that I had the ability to build rapport and creating long-lasting relationships with people. Fast forwarded about six years and now I am using that ability to find the top security talent for Schellman & Company!
