This is a valuable resource for cybersecurity professionals at every stage in their career -- whether you're looking for your first job, your next job, or as a team leader looking to fill positions. I especially appreciated the authors' references to other books, giving me the freedom to dive deeper into related topics (sales, self-improvement, technical guides).

So I have been looking for a book that is made to ace (hack) a cyber security interview. People always ask me how they can better prepare for one. I had not seen a book that really went into it until I read this one! What will you get out of it ? You'll learn the types of roles that exist, what certs you may need for them, a rough range on compensation for each role. And, best of all practice interview questions and answers. This a GREAT guide and I recommend you grab this if you plan to interview for a job. This is the book I now pass on to my peers that are trying to enter into the cyber workforce!

The second edition brings cutting-edge updates, offering everything from general advice to expert-level questions.What I found exciting about this book is its structured approach, packed with role-specific chapters like Penetration Tester, SOC Analyst, and CISO. It doesn’t just tell you what you might be asked; it empowers you with actionable advice on how to stand out by sharing real-world examples. The "HACK" method, blending self-awareness with strategic preparation, is a game-changer for confidence and performance.One of my favorite sections? The behavioral interview questions—often overlooked but so critical. This book goes the extra mile, providing tools to manage stress, tackle tough questions, and even boost your personal branding. It’s not just a prep book; it's a career enhancer. If you're passionate about cybersecurity, this is a must-read!
