The proliferation of boot camps for coding and other in-demand skills has prompted people of all backgrounds to make a career jump — and that includes recruiters.
Max Nash — now a graduating student of General Assembly’s coding boot camp program — was a recruiter for the software engineering industry before he decided to join the industry himself.
Recruiters can often be sorted into three buckets, Nash told HR Dive: people who sell, people who network and people who learn about their subject matter. He leaned into that third bucket, and when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, he found further opportunity to study coding and computer science.
