I wanted to share my gratitude for the fantastic support Brian provided as I explored new roles as an application security engineer. His advice and recommendations perfectly catered to my technical background and the types of positions I hoped to target.
Brian took the time to understand my hands-on experience performing security testing, threat modeling, and integrating security into CI/CD pipelines. He used this knowledge of my expertise to scan his network and connections for just the right potential opportunities.
Specifically, he identified an opening for an application security lead at Acme Financial that lined up beautifully with my qualifications. Brian gave me insight into Acme's security team structure and their use of tools like OWASP ZAP, Contrast Scan, and SonarQube which matched my skills.
The job description Brian found highlighted core responsibilities in code review, penetration testing, vulnerability management, and security automation that fit me like a glove. I felt it was written with someone just like me in mind.
Brian also helped me prepare for the interviews by providing tips on highlighting my experience establishing application security programs and static/dynamic testing methodologies based on who would be conducting the screening calls. This allowed me to tailor my responses and stand out as an ideal candidate.
In the end, his dedicated support led me to receiving an application security job offer that has me extremely excited to take on these new challenges. Brian's assistance was invaluable, and I believe he drastically sped up my job search through his network and personal guidance. I'm happy to act as a reference for his continued great work assisting security talent.
Marissa is a good listener and very interested in what is important to me in my job search. She was very upfront and informative about what positions are available and the specific requirements of each position. I really appreciated that because it gives me a heads-up in advance so that I know how to prepare. She is very responsive to emails and phone calls. I look forward to working with her in the near future!
