Hello! My name is Mike and I am an infosec engineer with 10+ years experience. I’ve worked in GRC, Vulnerability Management, PenTesting & AppSec. I have 17 SANS certs (I have a serious problem) and I’m also an infosec community enthusiast and creator/mod for /c/cybersecurity. AMA!

Mostly non-tech experience. This is subjective and will vary hiring team to hiring team but in this field I have always glossed over any non-tech things on a resume. There’s so much opportunity for people to learn and get involved with IT/security that there’s no excuse to not just focus on those competencies on the resume. Just my opinion.

Okay. So my experience as a software developer while not the main thing being judged will still be relevant?
