A few years back, Zachary Plotkin was grabbing a coffee, as one does. When he went to swipe his credit card, a chief privacy officer who happened to be standing nearby asked him, "Hey, do you know where that data goes?" Thinking about it for a moment, Plotkin realized: No, he didn't. That began Plotkin's early education into privacy and data protection. A manager at Infinity Consulting Solutions, Plotkin decided he wanted to start helping staff companies working in the privacy space. That was before the EU General Data Protection Regulation came into play. It took a bit, but business has since picked up. In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, Plotkin talks about what companies are hiring for and offers tips for pros on the market looking to get their next gig.
