I still remember a few years back, I had a recruiter chasing me about a CISO job at a company. Traditional CISO, seemed to fit my strengths.
The recruiter asked “do you have a CISSP?”
I said “no, but 30,000 people listen to my podcast each week and claim that time to keep up with their CISSP continuing education requirements”
He responded: “well, it’s kind of a big deal to them. Would you be willing to get that certification?”
I declined - I don’t think I would have been a good personality fit for them.
