The subreddit r/netsec has officially launched its Q4 2025 Information Security Hiring Thread, serving as a primary hub for connecting cybersecurity professionals with open roles. This quarterly thread allows companies to tap directly into a specialized talent pool, encouraging listings for both full-time positions and internships targeting students or recent graduates.
Key Guidelines for Recruiters
To maintain quality and transparency, the community enforces specific rules for all top-level comments:
- Disclose Identity: Company names must be public (no ‘stealth’ recruiting), and third-party recruiters must explicitly state their status.
- Location & Logistics: Posts must specify geographic location, remote work availability, and relocation assistance.
- Realistic Requirements: The community strongly prefers ‘non-HR’d’ (practical, skill-based) requirements over generic checklists.
- Transparency: Clear details regarding visa support, security clearhips, and the application method (HR portal vs. direct contact) are required.
Employers looking to hire in the infosec space should review past threads to understand the preferred format before posting.
