Welcome to our monthly networking event for our CALD in Cyber Community.

Event Agenda:

"Mastering Aussie Job Search" with Gaurav Wadecar

Bio:
Gaurav is on a mission to help job seekers in Australia. He founded the 'Finding a Job in Australia' meetup and has organized numerous events on job search topics. Having experienced the challenges of job hunting in a new country, not once but twice, he's determined to make it easier for others. With a background in project delivery and a passion for all things digital, he's working on creating a one-stop jobseeker's community.

Followed by our networking activities and games to get to know each other.

No boredom. Just pure joy of connecting and building your network in Sydney.

Food and beverage will be provided! Just come with an open mind and heart.

So, what's it like to be a part of a culturally and linguistically diverse group in cyber security?

It's tough!

Did you know that Australia is one of the world's most diverse countries? With 1 in 4 Australians born overseas, over 300 religions practiced, and more than 100 languages spoken.

In cyber security, we're serving this diverse community, and our industry should mirror this diversity. But, sadly, it doesn’t!

We often discuss getting and promoting more women in cyber roles, but have you ever tried looking up the percentage of CALD professionals in cyber or leadership roles? You'll quickly see how far behind we are.

This needs to change!

We are thrilled to launch our 'CALD in Cyber' community events and awards.

Our community's aim is to shine a spotlight on the unsung CALD heroes, the ones who often have to work twice as hard to prove their abilities in the industry.

Within this community, we aim to discuss and tackle our challenges head-on, create and seize opportunities, and ensure you feel valued, celebrated, and visible.

So, why should you join?

If you ever had to Anglicize your name to increase your job prospects, this community is for you.
If you've had to downplay your experience on your CV for fear of over-qualification, or accepting lesser pay, because senior roles seem to be an exclusive club, this community is for you.
If you feel restrained from bringing your authentic self, and celebrating your unique heritage at work, this community is for you.
If you've been hired as a diversity quota filler, but found that inclusivity was sorely lacking, this community is for you.
If you're seeking validation, empathy, and advice from those who've walked similar paths, this community is for you.
And if you don't personally identify with CALD but wish to stand with us as an ally, this community is most definitely for you.

Please join our community here at no cost: https://www.linkedin.com/group...
