In this episode, we are focused on job titles. It is important to know the job you are doing, but the job title doesn't really matter that much.

Do realize that there's not just one type of cybersecurity job out there. Even if you know the job by title, it doesn't mean that it is any different from another cybersecurity job. If you are keen on details, you will know what the differences are between job titles.

Kip and Jason talk about five cybersecurity positions so that you will be able to identify how they are different from each other. The discussion includes various keywords to look out for, basic requirements and experience required for the job title, as well as company background to keep an eye out for.

Job titles mean everything. Job titles mean nothing. ~Kip
