How far would you go to find top talent? Would you host a job fair or networking event? Even sponsor a conference?<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, those are tactics that everyone else is using. And yes, they are finding talent\u2014but you don\u2019t just want talent. You want the best<\/em> talent in tech. In today\u2019s market, that means you\u2019re going to have to step up your game.<\/p>\n First, here\u2019s a fun fact: In the United States, we have more open jobs<\/a> than we have people to fill them. You\u2019ll need to push harder than ever to attract that top talent.<\/p>\n So, again: How far will you go to find top tech talent? What if you gave tech pros something fun and desirable: The ability to use their skills to \u201chack\u201d something very public? Dice did just that, giving tech pros the chance to show their stuff to the world.<\/p>\n The goal was simple: Find a way to inspire the best and brightest in tech to participate in a challenge that would generate excitement and attract them to jobs.<\/p>\n Dice invited participants to hack into the Content Management System (CMS) of a mobile billboard that was driving around New York City, Atlanta, Charlotte, Salt Lake City and Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n Okay so today I finally got around to attempting the #CanYouHackIt<\/a> tech challenge from the guys over @Dicedotcom<\/a> . Here’s a pictue of me a few hours ealier looking a bit smug; little did that man know just what he was going to be up against… Well played Dice \ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f\ud83d\udc4f pic.twitter.com\/Ua7hpqXyGC<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Arron Hovingham (@AnalystiaArron) April 9, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe Hack It Challenge<\/strong><\/h3>\n
