You´re applied for scores or hundreds of jobs, you finally get an interview, and then you bomb. Or, you think you did well, but you got turned down. Why? How can you improve your chances of succeeding at interviewing for security jobs? What can interviews and the questions teach us? This podcast is for job seekers, hiring managers, screeners, and recruiters who want to improve their interviewing skills.

This is a show where we explore the ways in which we, as cybersecurity professionals, test and improve the incident response process. In each episode, we discuss subjects such as IR tabletops, purple team tests, games, workshops, and process walkthroughs. We grapple with definitions of the terms we use, frameworks, metrics, outcomes, strategies, and approaches. The goal is to converge on a set of standards and guidelines that we can all use to make cyber incident response more valuable, less costly, and maybe even more fun.
