Interview
A recruiter reached out to me through LinkedIn and had the skype screening with an engineer. 30 minutes interview with behavioral questions and some tech questions. The process took about 4 weeks.

Interview
Throughout the initial application process I notified the recruiter that I was only interested in cyber security work but the interviewer I was given had zero knowledge of security. I was disappointed.
