HR: Please overcome Fear Factor while hiring Tech!

The "perfect fit" is not always available due to demand-supply mismatch as the demand soars for Tech Talent, specially the New Age Tech Skills. HR and Hiring Managers need to confidently bet on "potential" rather than eternally keep looking for Mr. Right, who is often NOT looking at you! Demand is growing exponentially for skills such as software engineering, data management, platform design, analytics-based automation, customer experience design, and cybersecurity. The solution is to hire candidates with more unconventional backgrounds But, hiring managers are skittish about choosing people with learning curves to fill mission-critical roles.
